UFC Fight Night: Hunt vs. Bigfoot (also known as UFC Fight Night 33) is a mixed martial arts event being held on December 7, 2013 at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.[1][2]
Background
The event will be the first that the UFC has hosted in Brisbane.[3]
The card is expected to be headlined by a heavyweight bout between Mark Hunt and Antonio Silva.[4]
Brian Melancon was expected to face Robert Whittaker at the event. But Melancon pulled out of the bout and subsequently announced his retirement due to renal stress. As a result, Whittaker was removed from the card as well.[5][6]
Mitch Gagnon was expected to face Alex Caceres at the event. However, the bout was scrapped during the week leading up to the event due to an alleged visa issue for Gagnon, restricting his entry to Australia.[7]
