Brock Lesnar fired up speculations that he is coming back to play at the UFC, when he was spotted cageside at the UFC 184 on Saturday. The star of WWE and former UFC heavyweight champion is said to be at the end of his contract with the WWE, thus prompting rumors of his desires to come back and fight in the UFC.
Lesnar suffered from diverticulitis that technically became the reason he was never 100 percent healthy during his time with the UFC.
Frank Mir, on the hand, was Lesnar's one time rival and expressed his desire to fight him after defeating Antonio Silva in Brazil. Dana White was quick to deny rumors saying, he has no idea why Lesnar attended the fight. On Thursday, reports said that Lesnar's contract with WWE has reached an impasse making it hard for the former UFC star to renew any type of contract with the WWE.
In July of 2009, Lesnar marked his spot on UFC 100 where the sport recorded their biggest show ever. The following year, he succumbed from diverticulitis causing a loss to Cain Velasquez and another to Alistair Overeem in 2011.
According to SBNation, the drawbacks from his career led to a fallout on online subscriptions where he is concerned. The UFC icon now has to weigh his options, whether to enter the UFC again and revive his glory days, or contemplate on going back to WWE where his contract is still subdued. In a picture acquired by Yahoo Sports, Lesnar and White were seen talking with each other, yet no statement came from Lesnar regarding that moment.
In 2008, Lesnar lost his first match against Mir before rising again and winning his successive bouts. His fall from grace happened after he lost two consecutive fights against Velasquez and Overeem.
