Brock Lesnar recently spoke with Megan Olivi regarding his UFC 200 fight against Mark Hunt this Saturday night in Las Vegas. During the interview, Lesnar had the following to say about Vince McMahon allowing him to return to UFC, and the quote is courtesy of FOX Sports:
“The devil’s in the details in the language; it’s not complicated when you have the right people who understand your contracts and understand your life. That really boils down to it. Vince giving me the nod to be able to do this, I have great respect for the man and I think he has a greater respect for Brock Lesnar after I walked out in 2004 and went on to become UFC heavyweight champion.”
