2). Chance to readdress his legacy in MMA

Brock Lesnar has unfinished business in the UFC

Brock Lesnar managed to beat Heath Herring, Randy Couture, Frank Mir and Shane Carwin inside the Octagon, all the while being held back by a debilitating condition known as diverticulitis.

Apart from the fact that 99% of us probably only heard of the condition because of Brock Lesnar, just how badass is that?

For his part, Lesnar has always outlined his intent to compete in MMA when he's not underserved by a faulty digestive tract.

The UFC 200 fight against Mark Hunt was the first glimpse we got of unfettered, unhindered Brock Lesnar. He waltzed into the Octagon, which is only the ultimate proving ground in the whole goddamn world, and absolutely clobbered a top 10 heavyweight knockout machine.

The victory was overturned to a No Contest later on as Brock pissed hot, but it was still quite fearsome to watch. He rubbished ring rust, belied his age and made analysts who were predicting that Mark Hunt would crush his soul, eat humble pie.

But what better way for him to readdress his legacy in MMA once and for all than to take on, arguably, the greatest fighter to have ever stepped foot into the Octagon?

Jon Jones is every bit of a freak of nature as Brock Lesnar is, and he's got mad skills to go with it too.

It would easily be Lesnar's greatest test in MMA and by virtue of that, offer him a gilt-edged shot at cementing himself as one of the greatest combat athletes of all time.
