The UFC's official website has added Mark Hunt vs Chris Tuchscherer to its lineup for UFC 127: "Penn vs Fitch" set to go down on Feb. 26 from the Acer Arena in Sydney, Australia.

Hunt was brought to the promotion to allegedly satisfy a few stipulations of the PRIDE buyout back in 2007. Fans were shocked a fighter on a five-fight losing streak would ever be brought to the big show.

The UFC seemingly downplayed his signing and placed him in a bout with (at the time) relative unknown Sean McCorkle. About one minute and a kimura later and the losing streak reached six.

Can "The Crowbar" push it to seven?

They have to honor the contract from Pride for Hunt if I recall.Most likely want to keep Chris happy as he is Brocks friend and the last thing they want right now is to piss Brock off when he only has 1 fight left on his contract.
