Report: Brock Edward Lesnar in talks to appear at UFC 226

Respected MMA insider Dave Meltzer has reported that Lesnar is in talks with the UFC to be cageside for the stacked July PPV in Las Vegas, headlined by Cormier and Miocic.

This is actually pretty significant considering that Brock doesn't like appearing in public much, and hasn't attended a live UFC event as a spectator in years. My guess is that the UFC will try to book him against the winner of DC - Stipe or Ngannou (assuming he beats Lewis). Lesnar has expressed interest in a Jones fight recently but Jones will likely not be eligible to fight for a long time, so that's out of the equation.

The problem is that he still hasn't served out his USADA suspension yet, but I'm sure a few stacks here, and a few stacks there, will take care of all that.

Meltzer about to feel Dana's wrath.

 

[Touch of Death]

Lesnar has not entered USADA testing pool so he won't be able to fight this year possibly.

If I'm not mistaken, I think they require 6 months of testing.

Please god no..

You guys are silly he is not there to challenge, Stipe, DC, Ngannou or Jones. We all know what the real money fight is.

 

[Final Say]

He's gonna fight Francis, if anybody


No way he wants that Stipe fight

I still firmly believe that hes never fighting in the UFC again. Like the whole fake close signing of Brock earlier this year to add value to his WWE contact. This is just another publicity thing.

Brock would smash Miocic and it's not even close. Brock is a stylistic nightmare for the budget Crocop.

Brocks here to save the UFC

Another Brock is about to fight in the UFC report. So... I'm guessing his WWE contract is up again soon?

 

[Zefram Cochrane]

They probably just gave him $$$ to attend the event and hope that helps selling. I doubt he's seriously planning on fighting MMA again. This is a panic reaction after UFC 225 numbers came back.

Ufc 226 he enters the testing pool and fights DC or stipe in the new year

If he wanted to come back, doesn't he still have to finish his suspension from his positive PED test?
I wonder if he ever got to the bottom of that anyway?

 

[car epic win]

stipe cant draw worth shit so they're paying lesnar to come sit at cageside lmao

Bingo, but UFC are so desperate to have him back earning him they're money, they'll fall for this, even though it's obvious they're being cucked.

I don't think he paid his fine either. Didn't have any plans initially, so I don't know how good that looks in the eyes of the commission as well.

 

[Anomonis]

UFC is desperate for an external star since they have no clue how or who to promote. One of the worst promoters in fight sports history.
