White: Brock Lesnar return ‘definitely a possibility’
“Brock Lesnar has some regrets,” said Dana White. “Would he like to fight again? I’m sure he would. We’ll see how this whole thing plays out. It’s definitely a possibility.”
At the UFC Fight Night 35 post fight press conference, UFC president Dana White was asked about the potential return of Brock Lesnar.
“Me and Brock talk,” said White as transcribed by MMAFighting. “I said recently Brock feels like, he said he has some regrets with MMA because he wasn’t healthy. He was going through those stomach problems the whole time he was here. So he has regrets.”
“It’s interesting. He became champion with diverticulitis. What would he have done without it? From the first day he fought in the UFC until his last fight he was suffering from it. He never felt right. He just didn’t know why and then it really hit him. He feels like he was fighting here at 40 percent.
“He thinks a Brock Lesnar that was 100 percent could have done much better. I told him, ‘you’re out of your f—ing mind. You came in here with one fight and became the heavyweight champion.’ It was fun having Brock here.”
“So he has some regrets. Would he like to fight again? I’m sure he would. We’ll see how this whole thing plays out. It’s definitely a possibility.”
