We suggested Barnett for Big Country as well, but even coming off a loss, a fight between Barnett, the catch-wrestling specialist and former UFC heavyweight champion, and Hunt would be a fantastic affair. Barnett will stand toe-to-toe with the best of them. He and Barnett are both revered in Japan, and if the UFC were to return there in early 2015, this is a fight that would be huge, possibly bigger than Hunt vs. Nelson. It's also a fight (and a setting, if Japan were to pan out) that might intrigue Barnett, who has been taking some time off as of late, but is due back to the octagon soon (we hope).
