DREAM fight card note

By Jim Murphy December 30th, 2008

One quick change to the fight card–Melvin Manhoef has replaced Jerome LeBanner in the matchup against Mark Hunt. Manhoef is a tough customer with some serious punching power, but he walks around in the high 180’s/low 190’s while Hunt weighed in at 286 pounds. Hunt isn’t particularly tall for a heavyweight at 5′10″ but will still have a two inch height advantage over Manhoef. Furthermore, the switch in opponent loses a lot of the drama for the fight as LeBanner and Hunt have a colorful rivalry dating back to the early part of the decade.
