Brock Lesnar has had a storied career in the UFC, which is definitely a violent sport. One has to be ready for a roller coaster ride if they’re entering the octagon. But, entering the octagon against a fearsome opponent like Jon Jones, is a whole new level of insanity. Even experienced MMA veterans like Chael Sonnen, and Quinton Jackson failed to clinch the victory against arguably the GOAT of the sport. Recently, ‘Bones’ came back from a hiatus and defeated Ciryl Gane within the first round to claim the UFC Heavyweight championship belt in dominating fashion.

Many fans believe there’s only one guy who can take on Jones at his best and still knock him out: The Beast Incarnate, Brock Lesnar. And a prominent wrestling personality also thinks the same.
