The WWE superstar paved his way back to MMA at UFC 200, taking on a strong opponent like Mark Hunt. It was a sheer moment of excitement, as Lesnar turned to the octagon after five years.

However, what made it more interesting was Lesnar’s hilarious remarks during the press conference. Ariel Helwani asked the Beast to highlight his preparations for the fight. Now, Lesnar was sitting beside Daniel Cormier, while also guiding him throughout the process.

Replying to Helwani’s “How many rounds did you spar?,” Brock Lesnar said, “3000”. It appeared that Lesnar threw the numbers abruptly as he didn’t pay much attention to Helwani’s inquiry. No wonder the moment remains to be one of the most savage happenings of Lesnar’s UFC path.

Since he is touted to return again, umpteen opponents are available for him. A blockbuster contest with Jon Jones is also on the charts, which has already intensified the scenario.
