Brock Lesnar seriously ill.
Discussion
UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar is seriously ill in hospital after collapsing in Canada, UFC president Dana White said Saturday.
"He's in rough shape, he's in really bad shape," White said Saturday after UFC 105.
"He is not well and he is not getting any better. . . . He's very, very sick and he's going to be out for a while. He's got a lot of problems."
Citing mononucleosis, the 32-year-old Lesnar was forced to postpone a title fight against Shane Carwin scheduled for UFC 106 on Nov. 21 in Las Vegas. The fight was pushed back to UFC 108 on Jan. 2, but that too has been postponed.
"He's got mono and he's got something else wrong with him. I know what's wrong with him, he just doesn't want me talking about it," White said.
"He doesn't have cancer or AIDS or anything like this, (but) he's got some problems, man."
White said Lesnar was currently in a hospital in North Dakota. The six-foot-three, 265-pounder owns property in Canada, White added.
"He dropped up there and had to go to hospital," White said.
He said Lesnar may have to go to the Mayo Clinic or another top hospital "to figure out what's wrong with this guy."
"He's not going to be getting well any time soon," White said.
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.

Makes you wonder what it is + what all the mystery is with White's statement being so vague and contradictory - e.g. I know what it is - he's got to go and have them figure out what it is etc. Muddled or deliberately talking in riddles?
Odd that he's already saying he may never fight again . . wonder if it could be Hepatitis?

UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar, sidelined indefinitely from an undisclosed illness, is likely to require “major surgery” and may never fight again, UFC President Dana White today told TMZ.com.
According to White, Lesnar, who is also suffering from mono, has been hospitalized since collapsing during a trip to Canada last week. He will reportedly be transferred to the Mayo Clinic, where he’d undergo surgery for a “intestinal disorder”.
It does sound a lot like its related to steroid abuse. Still, I hope he gets back to fighting, even if its only to see Frank Mir win the rubber match!According to White, Lesnar, who is also suffering from mono, has been hospitalized since collapsing during a trip to Canada last week. He will reportedly be transferred to the Mayo Clinic, where he’d undergo surgery for a “intestinal disorder”.
He was never caught but given the wwe testing at the time was non existant and he looked like this compared to how he looks now in the mma world where he is tested, I think its fairly certain he was abusing them at one point.
He was always a big dude but the definition he had during his wwe stint was ridiculous, he's not anywhere near as shredded these days, the second picture is him at a weigh in too, so he's carrying very little water weight and still doesnt look as ripped.
It could be totally innocent but given the past record of wwe participants from his era and before it wouldnt be a massive shock to find out its steroid related. It would also explain why the UFC want to keep a lid on it.

Lesnar grew up on a farm in South Dakota, and later joined the National Guard at the age of seventeen.[15] In January 2001, Lesnar was arrested for receiving large amounts of what was alleged to be illegal substances. The charges were later dropped when it was discovered the substances were in fact legal sports supplements and were later described by his defense attorney as a "vitamin type of thing."[90]

Yep, looks like he'd be well enough connected to do just that. Interesting that Fedor always appears wearing a cross yet little bro (black sheep of family - oh, damn there I go looking for a concrete overcoat again . .) appears wearing what are supposedly crim/gang/prison/'right wing' tats all over.
At the risk of signing my early death warrant, he sounds like a total scumbag.
He's got five years for armed robbery, hence the pirate tattoo and the five point stars.At the risk of signing my early death warrant, he sounds like a total scumbag.
Fedor has said he thinks Aleks would be a better fighter than him if he had the same mental attitude.
