Lesnar is "Very Very Sick"

It's already reported that Lesnar has mono. What Dana White is now saying is that he has something else on top of that.

Mono can be pretty bad, but you will recover.

Honestly, the first thing that popped into my mind was hepatitis but I'm probably wrong.

It is being said that Brock Lesnar will not fight for a very long time, if ever again. This is a very serious situation. Dana White will head to Minnesota to meet with Lesnar, and will also try to get him into the Mayo Clinic, or some other top notch medical facility.

I know they said it wasn't...but Mayo clinic specializes in cancer treatments.

Well, Nog has another staph infection, so he's out of his fight with Velasquez.

Carwin's recovering from knee surgery so he's not going to be making it any time soon I don't imagine.

That pretty much leaves them with nothing until Carwin is ready to go again.

Unless they wanted to do Velasquez versus the winner of Gonzaga/Dos Santos, but that seems very unlikely to me.

Well in a bizarre turn of events, they can somehow book Carwin vs. the winner of Mir/Kongo at UFC 107.

I bet Frank Mir is chomping at the bit of just the idea of an interim title so he doesn't have to beat Lesnar for it.

Forgot about Mir/Kongo tbh.

Are you kidding me? Hell yes! Mir better kill Kongo, than Carwin.. and we can the rubber match. That would be so amazing, mir making a comeback this time, rather than Lesnar.

It's all storyline. That's why Shane O Mac was there!

Nah, hope he gets better soon, doesn't die, etc etc.

Dana White told TMZ.com that Brock Lesnar is battling some type of intestinal disorder that will require "major surgery

White also said it has nothing to do with cancer or HIV.

Wow that makes sense.

Yesterday, Dana White told the Associated Press that Brock Lesnar is recovering from a bacterial infection in his intestinal tract. White is still encouraging Lesnar to check into the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota for further treatment.

WCCO-TV, which is the CBS affiliate in Minneapolis, adds that Brock Lesnar is suffering from diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is a disease which is usually found in the large intestine. It forms large pouches on the outside of the colon, which then becomes inflamed. Treatment for diverticulitis usually involves no solid food, only being fed through an IV and an aggressive antibiotic treatment. Also, in severe cases, surgery can be required to remove the infected area of the colon. Surgery is usually avoided, unless it is a severe case, which Lesnar's appears to be.

Dana White once again said that he does not know if Lesnar would fight again.

Shit, that's an extremely dangerous disease. I read somewhere else that he would be undergoing surgery so this doesn't look good for Brock.
