Mark Hunt, a fighter with Samoan roots, possesses punching power that ranked around first or second even in the old K-1, and he also has a skull about twice as thick as that of an average human.

Hugely popular in Japan as well, the entrance song he used was “Numb/Encore,” a collaboration between Linkin Park and Jay-Z.

It features a refreshing melody that perfectly suits Mark Hunt’s gentle personality.
