Randy Couture wins the SuperFight title!
What a delightful comeback. Hunt was walking away with this one, then Couture was like..."Nah, that's not how I go", and went to come-back town, taking the fight away from Hunt. Hunt tried to get back into it, but Couture out-damaged him like, 3:1 after the initial Hunt-barrage, got back into the fight, took over the fight, won the belt. Bit win for big Rand.
Turns out, Randy is dandy, and Hunt's a...well...I think you know where I was going with this.
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
