By Justin LaBar

Brock LesnarUFC President Dana White was recently quoted as saying Brock Lesnar almost came back to UFC for the long awaited dream fight with Fedor Emelianenko which would have taken place at Dallas Cowboys stadium.

White told MMAFighting.com,

"Remember when I met with Lesnar and said it didn't go well? It actually went well. It went well, and Brock wanted to fight Fedor. Then Fedor's dad died, and he was done."

Regarding Lesnar's future, White doesn't believe he will be back in UFC:

"He's going to do his stint in the WWE and then go away. He's got a big farm up in Canada. He loves to farm and he loves to be with his family out in the middle of nowhere."
