Hunt agrees to fight Overeem at UFC 209: 'Back to work'

"The Super Samoan" is back in business.

Mark Hunt appears to have finally agreed to fight fellow heavyweight Alistair Overeem on March 4 at UFC 209 in Las Vegas, according to his Facebook post Wednesday bearing the caption: "Back to work."

The promotion announced the booking just over two weeks ago, only for Hunt to refute it shortly afterward, stating he would only sign on the dotted line if the UFC agreed to compensate him in the event Overeem violated the USADA anti-doping policy.

The 42-year-old's last opponent, Brock Lesnar, was handed a one-year suspension by USADA on Wednesday for testing positive for estrogen blockers in two samples collected around their fight at UFC 200 - a unanimous decision win for Lesnar that's since been overturned to a no-contest.

Hunt aggressively sought reparations after news of Lesnar's doping violation broke, then threatened legal action if the promotion didn't grant him the compensatory clause, but the standoff may have been resolved now that he's back in the saddle.

Each of Hunt's last three dance partners have failed drug tests in the past, as has Overeem, who was flagged for elevated testosterone levels back in 2012. The pair first fought under the DREAM banner in 2008, with "The Reem" winning by first-round submission.

The Dutchman most recently challenged heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic at UFC 203, where he was knocked out in under a round.
