But they’re definitely not coming back for UFC 300.” I always had an incredible working relationship with Brock Lesnar,” said White. “It’s funny to say this because he’s such a grouchy dude, but I consider Brock Lesnar a friend… But no, they’re not coming back.
Lesnar is 5-3 and one No Contest all-time in the UFC and last fought at UFC 200 when he beat Mark Hunt by decision. However, the fight was overturned to a No Contest after Lesnar tested positive for clomiphene.
