UFC President comments on Lesnar's return; UFC Interested in CM Punk?
UFC President Dana White spoke with TMZ Sports and said that he would be definitely interested in having a conversation with CM Punk about having a possible MMA career. Punk has been in the headlines lately for his controversial comments against the WWE he made while discussing his departure from the company on Colt Cabana’s podcast.
While there has been a fallout between the two parties, it seems White is considering to capitalize on the present situation. At an event in NYC to celebrate the new UFC-Reebok partnership, he said:
I don't know if he can fight or anything like that , but sure, I wouldn't mind talking to CM Punk.
Lesnar wants to get back into MMA after his contract expires with WWE after WrestleMania 31. White also commented on the possible return of current WWE World Heavyweight Champion to UFC. He said:
If and when his deal if up with them and he wants to fight, I’m, sure he’ll call me.
