UFC'S DANA WHITE COMMENTS ON WHETHER BROCK LESNAR IS RETURNING TO MMA

During a post UFC-PPV interview for UFC on Fox Sport 1, Dana White was asked about WWE World Heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar being at the PPV. White initially joked that he didn't see him, then said Lesnar was in town to see some people and was "apparently" a fan of UFC and wanted to see some fights.

White was asked by interviewer Ariel Helwani whether Brock was coming back to UFC. White said, "I don't know. He's under contract to WWE. When his WWE contract is up, I am sure he will call me."

When asked what they spoke about, White said it was about last night's fights but teased that Brock did ask whether fighter Frank Mir, who Lesnar had fought in UFC, did say he wanted to fight Brock again.

Obviously, the timing of Lesnar showing up just six days after he walked out of a WWE Raw taping in Nashville, TN following a dispute believed to be over something related to either his current deal (which runs through the end of March) or a new, potential deal was not by chance. Lesnar knows how to play the game. Whether that game leads him back to UFC, only time will tell.
