Mark Hunt is smuggling anvils in his hands, and Antonio Silva felt that insane power.
It wasn't the division-quaking, all-time war like their first affair. In fact, it wasn't even a five-minute skirmish. It was a few minutes of Hunt and Silva dutifully circling each other before a clubbing right hand behind Silva's ear sent "Bigfoot" scrambling to the mat.
Hunt followed it up with a pair of massive finishing nails, forcing referee John Sharp to mercifully halt the bout at 3:41 of the opening stanza.
With four vicious stoppage losses in his last six fights, this might be the end of the line for Silva, while a seemingly reinvigorated Hunt rejoins heavyweight relevancy.
