3 Reasons Daniel Cormier vs Brock Lesnar is still happening

#1 The Lesnar-Cormier Rivalry

UFC 226: Miocic v Cormier

Once a challenge comes, Brock Lesnar is not one to back away. There are a number of reasons that he wants to fight Cormier. The money will definitely be good, with the main-stream attention that he brings along with him. The fight will see him return to dispel the memories of his less than well-received last fight, where his win was overturned after they found drugs in his system.

The Lesnar Cormier story started when he was challenged to the fight in the cage after the title win. The last thing that Lesnar will do is back away from a challenge after having made the sort of statement that he did by pushing Cormier back.

With a title shot, and a return to the front and center position of UFC hanging in the balance, Lesnar's return to WWE does not matter, as he will surely be returning to the UFC as well.
