You know what they say about big hands, not big enough gloves.

Brock Lesnar is preparing for his ninth UFC fight on Saturday night and, somewhere along the way, his hands must've grown. The heavyweight (5-3) faces off with big-hitting Mark Hunt at UFC 200 but, in the latest Embedded vlog, he has encountered some problems. The 38-year-old American is recorded towards the end of the episode (six minutes in) trying to squeeze in to a pair of 4XL gloves - the biggest regulation UFC fit. He asks for a 5XL because his hands are that big.
"When you tape my hands, I don't know if you'll get the glove on," Lesnar says as he tries on the 4XL. "I won't be able to close my hand. Do you have a 5X?"
