Is there a more talented man on the planet than Brock Lesnar?

A former UFC heavyweight champion along with WWE prizefighter and he also nearly made it in the NFL too.

Well, fans would love to see the “Beast incarnate”, as he is affectionately nicknamed when competing in the WWE, back in the octagon.

Lesnar last competed at UFC 200 when he fought and defeated Mark Hunt to improve his MMA record to 6-3 only for it to go down as a non-contest as the 40-year-old tested positive for clomiphene.

Yet, there have been rumbling that he could return to face Jon Jones in a super fight in the near future and the Minnesota born fighter only added fuel to the fire.

Jones recently spoke on a Facebook Live chat saying that he’d love to fight Lesnar and when contacted by the Associated Press the WWE star stated his interest.

“Would I fight Jon Jones? Anytime, anywhere,” Lesnar told Greg Beacham of Associated Press. “Right now he should be worried about D.C. on Saturday night.”

A fight between the two would spark massive interest given that Lesnar’s previous bouts have regularly recorded over one million pay per view buys.
