    I wish Brock would **** off to be honest. The horrible, cheating ****. I have no interest at all now.

    The UFC have somehow managed to get away with the stunt they pulled in allowing him to fight at UFC 200 when they knew he had popped as well which seems to have been completely brushed under the carpet.

    The new owners have already been given a slap on the wrist for overestimating potential financial returns to investors, so with Ronda now gone and them agreeing to allow Conor to fight Mayweather for a significant cut and now them getting Brock back it tells you all you need to know.

    is brocks WWE contract up soon ? just a ploy to get a better deal ? he would be smashed by big Fran, and if he fails the tests still has a job.

    You're talking as if Lesnar is the only juicer that's done the sport. MMA is absolutely riddled with juicers at the top just like every other sport.

    Agreed. Cain has taken a huge amount of time off to let his back recover so hopefully he can start a decent run of fights this time. Him vs Stipe would be a war.

    Jeremy Botter is after tweeting that ufc want to make Brock Lesnar v Jon Jones in 2018

    Steady on there horse. You're after seriously misquoting his tweet there.

    He merely said its a dream fight for them. IMO from the point of view that it would make everyone concerned an absolute fortune. No mention or even an insinuation that anyone connected to the UFC has said anything to give it any creedence.

    Plenty of people in the replies jumping on it though.

    But if its a dream fight for them surely it's a fight they want to happen ?

    Should bouce back nicely for 214 though . by far the best card of the year

    Has anyone from the UFC brought up the possibility of this fight happening? No.

    Until they do its just some dude tweeting random sh1te. There is zero substance to it. He may as well be tweeting about Santa fighting the Easter Bunny.

    Oh I agree but I was just saying what he tweeted never said it was going to happen

    DJ Borg and Nunes Shevchenko will be worst than 213 no doubt, personally dont care about either fight.

    They should just throw the four of them in at once. Save a main event slot for something that matters.

    Did Dana not say they wouldn't headline again ?

    All well and good but to be fair what you said and what he actually tweeted are two different things.

    Saying that the ''UFC wants it to happen in 2018'' carries a certain implication. Yours was exactly the type of reaction he was trying to elicit with that tweet. From time to tme he throws out random sh1te like that to see how far it goes.

    Jeremy Botter ''breaks'' hundreds of stories a year. Most of them turn out to be complete BS.

    Wouldnt even say Dana will show up to that ppv, I can see him offering massive bonuses to Shevchenko and Borg to win and oust the pair of champions hes been ****ting on.
