I'd rather he not. There's nothing else for him to accomplish.

Hell no. Brock don't want none. It'd be a crime for him to bail and then wait it out until the division was weak as hell and the guys that were smashing his face in have all retired or are out of elite level class.

The HW division is thiiiiiiiin. That dick should start at the bottom if they do sign him.

He beat Couture.
He beat Mir.
He beat Carwin.
No shame in losing to Cain.
Overeem was 'roided to the gills.

Brock never beat any top heavy weights as far as I'm concerned. Couture was never a top heavy weight. He was a great light heavyweight that won the title when all of the top guys were in pride and strikforce. Mir was never close to great.

Carwin was really good for a short period of time. He beat the hell out of Brock but got gassed. Terrible cardio.

Cain and Reem crushed Brock. Don't care about roids. Part of the game. Brock has probably done plenty over his career as as probably 50% of all ufc fighters have.

I don't think Brock has a chance of beating Cain, JDS, or Werdum. I would also take Big foot and possibly Barnett over him. Brock was a good heavyweight and would be if he returned. However he has never at any point been a top 5 heavyweight overall (all organizations). He might could come in around #5 now, but only because the MMA hw pool is the weakest it has been since the turn of the century - 2000.

Only reason to pass in brock is mma purist are full blown anti outsider (esp wwe) coming into the company now.

If you truely want the best in the world and dont want your former champ back fully healthy then you bring brock back anf see what he has left

I'll be happy to see Brock again in the UFC.

I think he will lose and badly to the top guys, but otherwise the division is so weak, a good fighter that adds depth is a welcome addition in my book. And Brock is a good fighter.

I think Brock is a top 8 fighter at HW right now. With that being said Dana wants him back. He was only apart of the single biggest grossing ppv in ufc history.

It's not like he got ktfo by a 40 year old mw.

Yeah he will if he gets a bigger paycheck from uncle Dana. If not he can always make his three Ppv wwe appearances a year plus 4-6 wwe raw appearances and laugh all the way to the bank.

Gets paid $5 mil a year to wrestle a few times (including ending Undertaker's WM streak and destroying John Cena for the title). Not too shabby.

Brock also overcame diverticulitis and lost too much muscle then came back and beat a gassed out Shane carwin. He should have lost. He wasn't that same after his illness. The first Mir fight showed how green he was despite being the superior athlete. He beat Heath herring like a drum, and was just too big, fast, and young couture.
