jdw Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Brock appears to be in a bad, career threatening way beyond the original mono: http://www.f4wonline.com/content/view/11346 Major surgery adds a new thing to the mix. The earlier nature of the comments made me think it might be something along the lines of Hepatitis (since cancer and HIV were denied by Dana). Major intestinal disorder and surgery... doesn't sound like Hep at this stage. Not how one would describe kidney failure either, which would be something that's career threatening. I'm less knowledgeable about intestinal issues than kidney and liver. Anyone know what the possibilities of what this is sounding like that could be career threatening?

jdw Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 BTW... does anyone having an idea why Yahoo's UFC page has nothing on this since Saturday? TMZ had a piece this morning that's getting quoted all over the place: http://www.tmz.com/2009/11/15/brock-lesnar-ufc-illness-sick The MSM is on it: Minneapolis Star Tribune http://www.startribune.com/yourvoices/70209672.html Toronto Star http://www.thestar.com/sports/article/7264...ry-manager-says And others. Strange. They get tons of MMA/UFC hits/traffic to the point of being proud about it. Kind of a big story. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohtani's jacket Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Dave said he has at least 3 or 4 things wrong with him, at least 2 of which are known. I really liked the joke on DVDVR about people thinking they're Dr. House. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Cracked me up too. So, what's really wrong with Brock already? Complications from mono ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted November 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 That's a lot of complications from Mono. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeCampbell Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Per Dana White, it's some sort of intestinal disorder. Brock has to undergo surgery and his fighting career may be over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohtani's jacket Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Rumour mill says it's diverticulitis, which if it requires surgery probably indicates that they'll remove the area of the colon with the diverticula. In other words, a partial colectomy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohtani's jacket Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Well, don't ever ask Dana White to report on your health condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floyd Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 That's crazy. I didnt know such complications could come from mono. I'm guessing he forced himself to train or refused to go to the doctor to get treated and his immune system got shot? I dont know cause I dont watch House. More of a "Lost" guy (which is why i'm always confused) :-) Here hoping they find out what wrong with him and he starts getting treated and its not serious since he just had a child, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
