After a hiatus of over four-and-a-half years, WWE superstar Brock Lesnar is coming back to MMA this weekend at UFC 200. Facing off against Mark "Super Samoan" Hunt (12-10-1), the fight briefly headlined the pay-per-view card after the cancellation of the Jon Jones/Daniel Cormier light heavyweight title unification bout. But now that Cormier is facing Anderson Silva in a non-title fight, the order has shifted once again.
Now following the new headliner of Miesha Tate and Amanda Nunes, the heavyweights both bring years of combat sports experience to the cage. Hunt, a brutalizer known for his walk-off KOs, has a 12-year career and 23 fights behind him. Lesnar has been wrestling professionally since 2000 and has a five-year MMA career under his belt.
In his seven fights in the UFC, Lesnar won the heavyweight championship, defended it twice and lost it in the three years he was with the promotion. On the eve of his return to MMA, let's review those seven fights.
