Pros react to the return of Brock Lesnar

During last night’s UFC 199 pay-per-view broadcast UFC officials announced that former heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar would be returning to fight at July’s blockbuster UFC 200 event in Las Vegas.

An opponent for “The Beast” was not given at the time, but we now know that an announcement will be made Monday June 6 on ESPN.

Here is how the pros reacted to the announcement that Brock Lesnar would be returning at UFC 200:
