I saw this. I hate it when fighters say they are gonna retire and then return. Its one thing when Couture or Penn say it. They have earned being able to return but I see it differently with Lesnar. Lesnar "retired" and went to WWE and now he wants back in UFC. Im not going to say any expletives here since I am good at keeping my calm but this, I do not like.

They were talking on the beatdown about Cormier, I think that would go horribly for Brock. But it would build a star in Cormier guaranteed.

Hope he comes back... So many haters for Brock but I guarantee even if you dont admit it.. You DO want to see him back. everyone does.

If brock didn't have intestinal problems he'd probably be one of the greatest HW fighters of all time. If you can beat randy, mir and shane carwin with that condition? Imagine the possibilities. 
Anyway, if this is true, I would love to see him make a comeback.

I'd love to see Lesnar back too.  Is he overrated by the UFC?  Yeah, and he's definitely not a HOF fighter.... yet anyway.  

But to be fair, his entire UFC career was spent fighting the best of the Heavyweight division (fighting Mir, Herring, Couture, Mir again, Carwin, Velasquez, and Overoid) and dealing with diverticulitis for the last part of his career.   It'll be interesting to see if he has fully recovered how well he would do.

If Brock came back, I could see some fights that would be competitive for him.  Struve, Schaub, Big Nog or Bigfoot for example.  However, I don't think he could get anywhere near the HW title again.  I don't see him getting past JDS, Cain or even Big Country.
Ultimately, he would still sell fights to the Casual MMA/WWE fans though, so we'll see.

@Anik:  The only question mark I have with him beating Big Country, is can he get past Roy's hook?  If he scores the take-down, he'll smother BC.  However, if Roy lands, we'll probably see the Brock 360 again.

either be a real mma fighter or don't be. Your half-assed participation just makes the sport look bad.

He isn't getting any younger.He must either give it his all and come back or stay out of MMA.He is signed to a one year WWE contract so it will have to wait until that ends,But he could still train in the meantime.I personally want it to happen but I doubt it will.

I don't care for going back and forth either.  Plus, Brock looked scared pre-Reem fight at the presser.  That said, few heavyweights can stop his double or get back to their feet once he has taken them down.  Brock would instantly help sluggish ratings numbers.  Lesnar is as dumb as a bag of hammers and doesn't seem dedicated to evolving as a fighter...but at the end of the day Zuffa, Lesnar, and other fighters would all make more money if he returned.  Everybody wins.
