Sam Roberts got the opportunity to interview the “Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar at Friday’s WWE 2K17 event, as a part of this weekend’s massive WWE SummerSlam fan experience. When asked about recent comments made by controversial UFC fighter Conor McGregor, and if he would enjoy an opportunity to step into a wrestling ring with the brash Irishman, Lesnar laid into the Featherweight Champion of the world with an expletive laden rant.
“I take [expletives] bigger than that kid. Come on. I know you kids all play [expletive] video games and you live in this false sense of reality and [expletive]. I’m two hundred and [expletive] ninety pounds. This guys a hundred and forty-five pounds, and that’s if he’s lucky, gets up and eats his [expletive] Wheaties. If Conor McGregor wants to say some [expletive] to me, and get his name out there more than he already has, by dropping my name, I got [expletive] about ten words for him. Come here, face-to-face, and say it to my face. Otherwise leave me and the [expletive] WWE out of it, because I came to your arena and kicked ass. Now, if you want, and if you’re so [expletive] tough, come to our arena and try and kick some ass.”
That may be a little more than ten words, but I’m certainly not going to be the one to tell Brock that…
Of course, Lesnar steps into the pro wrestling ring this Sunday to face “The Viper” Randy Orton. McGregor steps into the Octagon (probably…) Saturday night at UFC 202 to face off against rival Nate Diaz, in what may be his last fight at Lightweight. UFC President Dana White recently commented that McGregor would return to Featherweight following this fight to defend his title, or be forced to drop the belt.
