Brock Lesnar's last fight in the UFC happened on December 30th 2011. That doesn't mean that he's one of the biggest draws in the sport. The former heavyweight champion is not short of potential opponents for his upcoming return to the octagon in July.
Lesnar is 38, and taking a headline fight on a month's notice. He must in good shape, and wants to fix his two loss streak before he moved to WWE.
Here's that promo that UFC aired on Saturday night to tease fans.
OH. MY. GOD. 😳 #UFC200https://t.co/ffhsOYIRvz

But who will Lesnar fight? Most people think it will be Josh Barnett - a former wrestler himself. Barnett is actively campaigning for the chance to fight Lesnar, but he's not the only one, as you can see. It's not the most ridiculous idea, that goes to the notion that Lesnar should fight Klitschko on the undercard of Mayweather/McGregor. Yes, that's still a thing apparently.
Brock Lesnar vs. the dreaded TBD at UFC 200. Don't sleep on TBD.

CM Punk signed with UFC in 2014 and has yet to fight. Brock Lesnar has been back for two seconds and is fighting next month. #UFC #WWE
