MMA Rumors:

-Brock Lesnar was reportedly seen at Power MMA, and looking to get back in MMA shape. He was recently released from the WWE. Will we see the return of Brock Lesnar?

-The UFC is looking at main events for UFC 169 and UFC 170. A light heavyweight title defense and a heavyweight title battle is expected.

-Chris Weidman has been training hard for his match against Anderson Silva. If Weidman can defeat Anderson Silva again, he will cement himself as one of the top fighters of all time. Chris Weidman will take on Anderson Silva in a rematch at UFC 168 in December.

In an update to our story earlier on Brock Lesnar, rumors are saying now that UFC tried to negotiate with Lesnar, but they fell through. Dana White said "He wanted way to much for being a washed up nobody! There is always a plan B here in the UFC though."
