There is no ounce of doubt that Brock Lesnar is a fighter. It doesn’t matter where he is, which promotion it is, he knows how to throw punches and smash opponents.

During a conversation on the Pat McAfee Show, he detailed how he had specifically focused on fighting with his brothers and others when he was growing up.

“I was fighting as a kid. My older brothers, no joke. You know, the local people from Webster, South Dakota will tell you that ‘The Lesnar Family’ we’re fighters. I grew up six years younger than my two older brothers, who were getting out of jail on Monday morning, to go to school because of street fights. So, I grew up with that stigma. We went to street dances. I went there to fight. That’s what I did, anyway.”

It wasn’t something that he forced himself to do. Fighting came naturally to him, and finally, his parents had to make a decision.

“My brothers would fight. Like, it was just world war three. I fought my older brothers. You know, put them through the kitchen tables. When I finally grew up and and I’d had enough of their sh*t. I’m probably 18. So, I put my brother through the china cabinet.” (H/t Pat McAfee Show 2.0)

In fact, there was a point his parents, especially his mother, asked him to make some money with it. Considering they were breaking household crockeries and furniture, the fighting was getting expensive for his parents.
