Brock Lesnar discusses possible return after UFC 200 win: I'm still the toughest SOB

Brock Lesnar defeated Mark Hunt at UFC 200, and churned in an impressive performance despite being out of the game for several years. With such a good showing at the milestone UFC event, people obviously want to know if we will see Lesnar back in the cage.

"Let's get one thing clear, Brock Lesnar does what Brock Lesnar wants to do," Lesnar said about a potential return, and whether he will need to get it cleared with both the UFC and the WWE. "I believe that my future is already laid out next month. I'm doing Summerslam against Randy Orton. Once the dust settles there, I don't know what I'm going to do."

"I've had one hell of a time tonight, and I enjoyed myself. We'll see what happens. It's way too soon, guys."

While Lesnar obviously wouldn't be making a decision on the eve of his big win, he did note that there was really a huge change from his last few bouts where he was still battling diverticulitis.

"Just the whole training camps were different," Lesnar said about dealing with the disease. "My camps 5 years ago were pretty depressing camps. I trained for a couple of days, then took 5 days off. Train for 3 days, then take a week off."

"I had 12 inches of my colon removed, and I went back in the Octagon 3 months later. I mean, who does that shit?"

Whether he decides to comes back or not, Lesnar feels that he still has the tools to make it big.

"I believe anything is possible," he said. "I'm excited. My body is feeling pretty good."

"I've been gone 5 years, and I stepped into the Octagon tonight against the guy ranked number 8 in the world. You can write what you want to write, I think I'm still the toughest son of a bitch (out there)," he said. "This puts me right back into the game. Granted, I've got some work to do, but don't we all?"

"If I wanted to make that decision and keep fighting, I will."
