“We’re looking at the SuperBowl (card), but we’re not for sure yet,” White said in a post-UFC 77 press conference.

The 6-foot-3, 265 pound Lesnar has an extensive and highly decorated collegiate wrestling background. He is said to have been training at Minnesota Martial Arts Academy with the likes of Sean Sherk and has worked with Royce Gracie and others in the past to improve his entire mma arsenal, though he knows he still has a long way to go.

"Obviously I don't think I'm ready for a UFC title shot right away," Lesnar said in a UFC-released statement. "But I will be there and I'm not going to turn down any opponent because I'm here to prove myself."
