Big Fight Discussed for Brock Lesnar Within UFC

There is a very high possibility that the current WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar might not re-sign with WWE after WrestleMania 31 (where he is supposed to pass the torch). With that being said, UFC is currently the place where Lesnar is the most favorite to go. Although UFC President Dana White stated in an interview that he had no conversation with Lesnar regarding a possible return to UFC, apparently there have been talks about potential fights for Lesnar if he returns.
One of those fights was discussed to be against Frank Mir. Lesnar previously lost to Mir by submission at UFC 81, which was Lesnar’s UFC debut. Lesnar then defeated Mir by TKO at UFC 100 to unify the titles. Mir’s last UFC fight came in February 2014, a loss to Alistair Overeem at UFC 169.
The UFC 100 Pay-Per-View, which was headlined by Lesnar & Mir, is the most bought UFC pay-per-view of all time with a buyrate of 1.6 million. If there ever is a Lesnar-Mir III, then it will definitely be a big money match!
