Paul Heyman speaks on Brock Lesnar's health and UFC return
Paul Heyman appeared on The MMA Hour this week and talked to Ariel Helwani about his client Brock Lesnar’s health and whether he would return to the UFC.
Here is what Heyman had to say.
On Brock Lesnar’s health
"He had a clean bill of health, finally. Brock was not ready for the Overeem fight, and I think that's fairly obvious. A liver kick, well placed, will drop any human being on the face of this planet. A liver kick from Alistair Overeem, at that size and weight -- no matter how he achieved it -- is going to drop any human being. Brock was unhealthy walking into that fight with Alistair Overeem. I don't think that Brock has ever truly understood nor accepted until he got past it, the severity of the illness that took him down. Brock, once he got past the Overeem fight, had all these treatments, switched treatments and doctors and finally got a clean bill of health."
On Lesnar returning to UFC
"If a change of circumstance happens, and it’s a no-brainer to get Brock back into the cage, I’m sure it’s something he would consider. At this moment, it’s not a topic of conversation because things are going so well in WWE."
