#4. Colorblind

Color blindness affects approximately 8% of men. Lesnar is red-green color-blind, so he cannot distinguish between red and green. It also hampers the way he sees the entire color spectrum.

It does not affect his athletic performance, but he could not join the military due to this reason.

#5. Married to Sable

Lesnar married former WWE women’s champion, Reena Greek aka “Sable” in 2006. Both were at the zenith of their profession when they began dating. Together, they have two kids, Duke and Turk.

Sable also featured as a playmate in Playboy.

#6. Suffered from diverticulitis

Lesnar contracted diverticulitis which caused him intense pain. This disease occurs when tiny pouches form on a person’s colon and it causes all types of serious complications with the digestive system.

He had to retire from MMA early in order to get treated. If left untreated the disease could have taken his life.
