Former UFC Champion and WWE Star Brock Lesnar Announces His Retirement from UFC

The end has come in the MMA career of one of its most polarizing fighters, former Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar.

The ‘Beast Incarnate’ has notified the UFC of his retirement from MMA, and is no longer on the UFC roster and was removed from the United States Anti-Doping Agency’s drug-testing pool.

Lesnar was able to return this July from a one-year suspension by the USADA for two positive tests last summer.

The last bout for Lesnar came in one of UFC’s biggest events ever – UFC 200 – in which he defeated Mark Hunt.

Lesnar continues to be one of the biggest attractions in WWE, and is slated to face rival Bill Goldberg in the main event at WrestleMania on April 2nd in Orlando.
