Even at the age of 46, Brock Lesnar is one of the most fit individuals in sports. This has stayed the same way for the past two decades, as Lesnar dominated WWE for a few years before jumping to football and then UFC. In the UFC, Lesnar became the heavyweight champion in a short time and was a legit strong man. Therefore, when asked about Lesnar returning to the octagon again for UFC 300, UFC President Dana White had an interesting answer.

White said that he has been following the progress of Brock Lesnar and knows that he is in excellent condition. The UFC President said, “Brock looks good, doesn’t he? He always does.” White understands that bringing Lesnar in for the 300th PPV that UFC has will be a huge draw, and the company will earn a lot from his appearance. However, he thinks this is highly unlikely.

“I think Brock’s done, “I don’t think he ever comes back,” said Dana White in his interview with Sports Illustrated. Therefore, despite being one of the most successful draws in the company’s history, the Beast Incarnate might not show up for the 300th edition of the PPV.

Lesnar was last seen in WWE as he lost to Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam in their rubber match. It was reported following the match that Lesnar is now training for a match with a strength and conditioning coach. Fans would love to see the former UFC champion in the octagon once again. However, it looks far-fetched as of now.

The Beast Incarnate has made and broken multiple records in WWE over the years. He is considered to be one of the most dominant champions in WWE and has headlined WrestleMania multiple times. However, WWE was not the only place where Lesnar performed.

During his time in the UFC, Brock showed that he is also legit tough, along with his professional wrestling skills. In 2008, the Beast won the UFC Heavyweight Championship, making him the first and only man to date to win the top prize in the UFC as well as the WWE.

Apart from that, Lesnar shares a unique feat as one of only two fighters to compete at both UFC 100 and UFC 200. He faced Frank Mir and Mark Hunt in 2009 and 2016, respectively. His bout with Mir ended with a submission, defending his championship. Against Hunt in 2016, the bout ended in a no contest.
