Looks like a really nice fight card. Also opens the door for a Cro Cop vs Hunt II(mma style).

If Hunt can get past Semmy's jab and front kick, we could have a new SHW champion on our hands! Conversely, if Hunt can't get past, be prepared for another snoozefest decision win for Semmy. Good to see Hunt isn't out of the game, he will have to train hard for this one

This is a K-1 rules match, right?

I don't see Hunt doing much more than surviving. The fact that he's a SHW at his height is not a great testament to his training routine and, like most guys, his activity level tends to be inversely proportional to his weight. I don't think he can be active enough with his footwork to make up the differential that Schilt has in reach and if he accepts fighting at a distance I don't think he has much of a chance.

He's Hunt, so he'll probably be around when the final bell rings, but I think the fight itself will be one-sided.

Semmy will win, I wish Hunt would stick to MMA and not do that fake wrestling Hustle stuff. He has a lot of potential in MMA, hopefully he'll return soon.

Won't happen though. Semmy doesn't have anything that Hunt hasn't been hit by before. I could see Hunt posing a problem, he doesn't really care if he gets hit and if he can work through the jab and front kick and unload that right it could be lights out for big Sem.

I was about to say, Hunt hasn't been KO'd by Cro Cop, even Le Banner couldnt KO him, I don't think Semmy will do it. Semmy doesnt have anything like the KO power of the other two, if Hunt got KO'd by him, I would suggest a Cabbage Correira type "Head softening" had occured.

If Hunt can weather storm and walk Schilt into a corner, or just get in close and force Semmy to back up, Semmy may well be too lanky to strike him effectively, and Hunt could bomb him from the inside. Being a stout SHW has to have at least one advantage, if he gets underneath Schilt he could do some damage, Schilt has always had a pretty loose midsection.

I expect a whole lot of " stay back" front kicks ,and a UD for Schilt.

I say Schilt takes this one via decision, i dont see major damage done by either man, but Semmy will use his reach the tag Hunt more often landing cleaner shots and winning on points.
