WWE/MMA News: Brock Lesnar still bound by contract to UFC, will continue to be drug tested

Brock Lesnar defeated Mark Hunt after a 5-year hiatus from MMA 

Earlier this month, 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar made a sensational return to the octagon defeating Mark Hunt in a dominating fashion during the co-main event of UFC 200. 

There was a lot of speculation that this was going to be a one hit wonder from the former WWE champion and we wouldn't see him in an MMA bout anytime soon due to his age and other factors. 

However now, it looks like that this speculation was wrong and we might see Brock fighting under the banner of UFC once again sooner than anyone expected. Mmafighting.com revealed that Brock Lesnar is still under a UFC contract and according to the rules of UFC he will still be drug tested by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency. 

WrestlingInc.com further reports that Brock's UFC career might not be over just yet as he is looking to have another fight inside the octagon later this year or in early 2017.

It should be noted that Dana White, the president of UFC said recently that Brock's future with the company depends on the decision of Vince McMahon and other WWE officials. Seeing the way WWE promoted his UFC return, it's safe to say that the WWE won’t be too averse to allowing Brock to lace up a pair of MMA gloves again.
