Brock Lesnar Not Expected To Make UFC Return

Brock Lesnar might have been telling people backstage in WWE that he is wrapping up his time and saying some goodbyes, but odds are he isn’t UFC bound. Dana White is certainly under the impression that Brock Lesnar isn’t returning to his company.

Although Brock Lesnar did big numbers for the UFC from 2008 to 2011, he made a lot more money in WWE. He left that UFC career behind him after returning to WWE in 2012. He was a brand-new Beast Incarnate, and although he did return to the Octagon in 2016 for a win over Mark Hunt, he hasn’t been back. That being said, the thought was that he could always come back.

UFC head honcho Dana White spoke about Brock Lesnar during a recent interview with Sports Illustrated, and he gave a very interesting opinion. White said that The Beast Incarnate has nothing left to prove, and he most likely won’t be back for another fight.

Brock and I have a great relationship, and we always have, but I don’t think Brock wants to fight any more. Brock’s made a lot of money. He came into the UFC and won the heavyweight title. He’s got nothing left to prove. I don’t think he’d want to do it.

Overall, Lesnar had a record of 5 wins and 3 losses in the UFC, with wins over top fighters like Randy Couture, Frank Mir, and Shane Carwin. He is considered one of the most dominant heavyweight champions in UFC history, despite only competing in the sport for a few years.

This is a very interesting point to think about when considering Brock Lesnar’s future. He might not return to the UFC, but he also doesn’t need to work for WWE either. Brock Lesnar is able to command a lot of money and attention with his name. He has also amassed a nice fortune and lives quite comfortably, to say the least.

Brock Lesnar is currently slated to take on Omos at WrestleMania 39. The big event will go down at SoFi Stadium on April 1st and 2nd. Only time will tell what’s next for Brock Lesnar in the mixed martial arts world, and pro wrestling, but we will keep a close eye on things.
