TweetThis gives him plenty of time to get ready, but I am kind of "iffy" on him jumping right back in with the top guys for his first fight. But if he feels confident, then he knows better than me.With the silence finally broken, now the speculation can really begin.
After UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar (4-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) revealed on this morning's edition of ESPN's "SportsCenter" that he has been blessed with a miraculous recovery from a potentially career-ending case of diverticulosis , UFC president Dana White issued a generic target date of "summer" for the champ's return.
On a media call following the "SportsCenter" appearance, White and Lesnar both got a little more specific about the possibilities.
With the UFC's December announcement that it would hold its second-ever UFC Fan Expo in conjunction with a Memorial Day weekend event, believed to be UFC 114, White today admitted that scheduling the heavily anticipated return of Lesnar at that card might make sense.
"Yeah, it's a possibility," White said when asked about Lesnar fighting at the May 29 event in Las Vegas. "In a perfect scenario, (Frank) Mir and (Shane) Carwin fight. One of them wins, comes out healthy, and then we do the Brock fight."
White had already stated during the ESPN appearance that the winner of the UFC 111 interim title fight between Mir and Carwin would get first crack at Lesnar.
With that fight scheduled for March 27 in Newark, N.J., the winner would have just nine weeks to turn around and prepare to fight Lesnar if the May 29 event was identified as the host of the bout.
But the allure of Lesnar in the main event of a card associated with another UFC Fan Expo may prove too great to pass up. If so, White has stated that the winner of the UFC 110 fight between top heavyweight contenders Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and Cain Velasquez could also find his way into the matchup.
With Nogueira and Velasquez meeting on Feb. 21 in Australia, the winner of the bout would likely have ample time to recover.
Lesnar said he's set to begin training on Thursday, and he's open to any option.
"I'll be back in the gym on Thursday morning," Lesnar said. "I'm going to have a mini-camp.
"I'm getting ready for anybody and everybody. I know the (fighters in the) heavyweight division are definitely back on their toes again because Brock Lesnar is back."
While Carwin, Nogueira and Velasquez all provide enticing matchups for Lesnar, the most marketable contest would undoubtedly entail a rubber match with Mir.
Mir defeated Lesnar in Feburary 2008 in the first meeting between the two. But after being defeated by TKO in a UFC 100 contest with Lesnar this past July, Mir has openly discussed his focus on a third fight with the champ. The former WWE star has obviously taken note of the comments.
"I don't think I beat [Mir] as bad as I could, so for me to get my hands on that stalker again – Frank Mir has made it a mission of his life," Lesnar said. "Frank Mir the stalker – it's been a while since I've had a stalker, but we'll take care of that if I ever face him again."
But Mir wasn't the only heavyweight for which Lesnar had a message.
"I'll just sit back, I'll sharpen my skills, and I'll be prepared for either one of those guys," Lesnar said. "If it's Nogueira, if it's Velasquez, I know one thing: all them guys are [expletive] their pants right now."

TweetThey were saying that he was only fighting at 60% before the illness. I can't say that I believe that, but I am sure he will probably feel better now.
Does anyone know if this is something that is recurring or is it something that once you take care of it, it is gone?
