After returning to the WWE in 2012 and being a part of some high-profile matchups and storylines, the Beast Incarnate returned to MMA to taste its blood again. Lesnar won against his opponent Mark Hunt at UFC 200 unanimously. His match was a co-main event. After his victory over Hunt, ranked number 8 in the world at the time, Brock Lesnar denounced his previous training camp in the post-match interview.

Once again, Lesnar showcased how he is never afraid of speaking his mind and denounced his previous training camps saying, “Just the whole training camp was different. My prior training camps 5 years ago were depressing camps. “I would train for a couple of days, then take five days off. Train for three days and take a week off.” 

He also added, “Come On. I had 12 inches of my colon removed. Jumped back in the Octagon 3 months later. Who does that s**t? I have been gone 5 years. Stepped into the Octagon tonight with the guy ranked number 8 in the world.”

Speaking about his comeback, Lesnar said, “I think I am the greatest son of a b****, and it puts me right in the game.” After the fight, he also criticized Mark Hunt in the interview.

Lesnar tested positive for hydroxy-clomiphene in his system, which is a banned substance. After this, the match was declared a no-contest, and Lesnar was suspended for a year and fined $250,000 for the violation.
