Did you watch the season? I loved when the coaches had big rivalaries, but this one was INTENSE.
It topped Rampage/Rashad and Chuck/Tito

As noted, Brock Lesnar received a guaranteed payday of $2.5 million for his UFC 200 win over Mark Hunt on Saturday night. He also received $5,000 in Reebok sponsorship money.
Lesnar will also make money based on pay-per-view buys when they come in and it was noted on Wrestling Observer Radio that Lesnar is set to make a minimum of $5.5 million and a maximum of around $8 million for the fight.
Regarding Lesnar's UFC future, no decision has been made but as noted, it will be up to Vince McMahon as Lesnar is still under contract to WWE. Lesnar is now officially on the UFC heavyweight rankings at #8.
With a payday like that, I think Brock is the main winner in the cross promotion situation! You know he's making bank for the limited # of WWE shows he's doing, even if he still has a little over a year or so left on the contract, it's not like he's out there each and every week so he can still be training for the UFC when he's not at a WWE show. If he's allowed to do a couple more UFC fights while still under contract with WWE, then he is still the main bread winner. IF he has to wait till his contract is up, then he's already cashed in on the cross promotion. I can see him leaving WWE again when his contract is up to do UFC full time, if he continues to win in UFC crossover events when allowed to do so. Then again, if he slowly moves up the rankings while still under contract with WWE, why not keep the same system later one and reap the benefits then too? Either way, the man is making bank!
Brock Lesnar got popped for possible doping violation!!
Just got the txt from Bleacher Report
"The UFC organization was notified today that the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has informed Brock Lesnar of a potential Anti-Doping Policy violation stemming from an out-of-competition sample collected on June 28, 2016. USADA received the testing results from the June 28, 2016 sample collected from the WADA-accredited UCLA Olympic Analytical Laboratory on the evening of July 14, 2016.
UFC is officially an absolute joke
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Who would have thought that 41 year old Mark Hunt would be the big winning in all of this?
It's funny how Pride FC guys were getting dissed when first coming over to the UFC, as it was said they skated on a poor drug testing program over in Japan. Now, look at what's happening over here.
And for the record, the lights going out in the Superdome was fixed. Just wanted to throw that in there randomly.
Brock fails 2nd test, taken the day of UFC 200.
His UFC days are officially over.
im thinking thats part of the reason he was non committal towards a second fight. He literally came in just to cash out. Sad for the UFC to replace one headliner with doping allegations for another.
Jones got popped for estrogen blockers. Im always curious how much these athletes know what theyre taking. Youd think it would be simple to check what your putting into your body but i get the feeling some of them just take what theyre given. you have one bad trainer/nutritionist that wants to make sure you get results to keep their job and gives you a little and you can easily fall into that ignorant athlete saying "I didnt take anything, I dont know how i failed" shtick. Clearly theyre responsible either way, Id just be curious if thats ever actually happened.
What a fucking absolute joke.
