Dana White on Brock Lesnar fighting in the UFC again: I wouldn’t be shocked

It’s now been almost two years since Brock Lesnar’s last mixed martial arts bout, a July 2016 defeat of Mark Hunt, which was ultimately ruled a no-contest when he tested positive for the banned substance clomiphene. From the sounds of it, however, Lesnar could make another walk to the Octagon before all is said and done. 

UFC President Dana White addressed the possibility of another Brock Lesnar UFC fight on the latest episode of UFC Tonight.

“Anything is possible,” White said when asked if Lesnar could fight for the UFC again in 2018. “Yeah, anything is possible. Brock has always shown interest in coming over and fighting here in the UFC. I wouldn’t be shocked if he gave it one more shot.”

While this is certainly an exciting possibility, its worth noting that Lesnar is still under contract with the WWE until April. Were he to return to MMA thereafter, he’d first have to un-retire from the sport, re-enter the USADA testing pool, and serve the rest of his USADA administered suspension. Needless to say, there are still some pretty significant hurdles that need to be cleared before Lesnar ever returns to the Octagon.

Do you think we’ll ever see Brock Lesnar fight in the UFC again?
