Brock Lesnar spoke on a media call today (via MMA Fighting) about his fight with Mark Hunt at UFC 200 and more. Some highlights are below:
On Stephanie McMahon saying WWE is “not supporting the fight necessarily”: “I don’t know, I don’t care what she says.”
On how a loss to Hunt may affect his WWE drawing power: “I really don’t give a s–t.”
On why he’s returning to the Octagon: “This isn’t about my fans. This is about me living my life, being the person that I want to be. Granted, without the fans and everything, none of us would be able to do this. I get that. But I don’t sit up at night wondering is my drawing power gonna be hurt or are my WWE fans gonna tune in and watch me do this. I don’t give two sh*ts about that. This is about me. I want to get in there and be an athlete again. That’s what this is about.”
On how his training camp is going: “I don’t know, I feel really good. Training camp is going great. I’m happy. I’m happy with my life. I’m happy with everything. Since I left the Octagon after I got beat by Overeem and kind of forced out of the cage because of my illness it haunted me for a long time. Well what do you do? Well, here I am. And before it’s too late, I want to get back in the cage and have fun with it.”
