“I don’t watch a lot of fighting anymore just because there’s so many guys… stories. It’s hard to follow. I wish Dana could figure out how to book things different. Like, come on man, and let’s start getting behind some of these guys, and maybe protect somebody for a while so they can become a household name. You can cha-ching them,” Lesnar said.
“But he’s in the business of putting on super fights every week, and it’s tough to do and it’s tough to stay on top,” he continued.
