Brock Lesnar Talks UFC Return: "I'm Back!"

<B>By MATT MOLGAARD<BR>

In May we learned that diverticulitis, the same condition that sidelined the former UFC heavyweight champion just a few short years ago, had reared its ugly head yet again. The Death Clutch product once more underwent surgery, and had several inches of his large intestine removed.<BR><BR>

While we?ve been awaiting word of Brock?s current condition, many pundits have been busy predicting early retirement for the dangerous heavyweight. It seems as though retirement is the last thing Lesnar himself is focused on.<BR><BR>

An official announcement from the Death Clutch camp is expected to arrive sometime today. However, a new video from one of Lesnar?s official sponsors, Fusion Ammo, was released last night, and while the focus seems to be more heavy artillery related than anything, Lesnar does indeed address his current status as a mixed martial artist.<BR><BR>

?What's new in the life of Brock Lesnar? Well, recently I went under the knife and had surgery for my diverticulitis. I feel like a new man, I feel great, healthy, strong - I feel like I used to feel.<BR><BR>

?Right now [it's] one day at a time for me. My future, I believe there's still a bright future in the UFC for me. My health is a hundred percent. I feel great, my motivation is there and I want to get on the map again, I want to become the UFC Heavyweight Champion again and I believe I will do that.?<BR><BR>

There?s no word yet on a planned return date, but that may arrive today along with Brock?s official announcement. For now, you can check out the video at <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=E5SjD-KcSkE" target="_Blank">YouTube.com</A>.<BR><BR>

We?ll keep you informed as more official info trickles in!<BR><BR>
