Dot Net Exclusive: Dana White comments on working with Brock Lesnar and his WWE past

UFC president Dana White issued the following comments to Prowrestling.net on Thursday regarding his working relationship with Brock Lesnar. "He's been great," White said. "Yeah, he's been great to work with.

"Every time he talks to me about WWE—it's a pretty stressful lifestyle. He was on the road almost 365 days a year and (with) injuries... He said, 'Some of the guys I was wrestling with are still doing it. I just can't even comprehend.' He likes this fighting style better. He fights three times a year."

Powell's POV: White also stated that Lesnar has a lot of MMA potential, whereas his next opponent Heath Herring is an experienced veteran. He also told me that he did not consider lining up a batch of soft opponents for Lesnar as boxing promoters have been known to do for young fighters with potential or name value.
