Brock Lesnar isn’t coming back to the UFC but the reasons behind his decision have been grossly misinformed.
That’s according to UFC president Dana White, who addressed Lesnar’s status after revealing several weeks ago that he wasn’t coming back to fight again and reigning heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier would instead face Stipe Miocic in a rematch at UFC 241 in September.
For the better part of the past year, Cormier had been pursuing a fight against Lesnar after the WWE superstar made a surprise appearance cage side at UFC 226 and ended up shoving the former two-time Olympian to begin promoting what was supposed to be an eventual showdown between the two of them.
