SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Let me take you back in time.  Saturday, July 9th, 2016.  UFC 200.  A pretty big deal for the UFC, and one of their main stars was out.  Jon "Bones" Jones, USADA violations, doping scandal.  Who steps up to fill his shoes?  None other than Brock Lesnar, of WWE fame.

Only problem is, we find out days later, Brock Lesnar also violated USADA rules.  Why didn't we hear about this?  One of the first instances happened in June.  I think I know why.

UFC realized you can replace Jon "Bones" Jones, but you can't replace a beast.  And who produced said beast?  WWE.


Now you guys are welcome to use any talent you want.  And Brock Lesnar is a grown man, and I wish them all the best.  But if you're gonna use the guy, at least give credit where credit's due - to WWE.  They're a big-time player in the sporting world, some of the best athletes in the world.  And you can use their guys, just give them the credit, okay?  Thanks.
