Eddie Hall’s dream is to bring Brock Lesnar out of retirement for a mammoth MMA fight.
‘The Beast’ knocked out Mariusz Pudzianowski in 30 seconds to win his professional debut in April.
Meanwhile, Brock Lesnar hasn’t fought in MMA since outpointing Mark Hunt at UFC 200 in July 2016.
Nine years later, the former UFC heavyweight champion has re-joined the WWE and shown no interest in fighting for real – but that hasn’t stopped Eddie Hall from talking up the possibility of a clash with ‘The Beast Incarnate’.
Eddie Hall isn’t all-in on Brock Lesnar as his next opponent; he just wants a ‘freak show’ fight.
Bob Sapp is also on his hit list after recently announcing he’ll return to MMA at 51 years old.
Once a contender, Sapp’s career devolved into a joke as he suffered 14 stoppage defeats in a row.
“I perhaps want one, maybe two more fights, and that’ll do me,” Hall told the Karate expert Jesse Enkamp.
It’s the money fights to put it blankly. I want to fight the Mariusz Pudzianowskis’. I want to fight the Bob Sapps’. I wanna get paid. I’m not here to get a fight ranking. I don’t care about being the UFC number one. I don’t care.
He added: “Brock Lesnar, f—ing bring those gloves back up, buddy. Me and you. ‘The Beast’ versus ‘The Beast’, let’s go!
“They always say, ‘Be careful what you wish for.’ That’s definitely one of those moments.
“He’s a hard b——.”
Dillon Danis returned to MMA for the first time in six years at Misfits 22 on August 30.
Eddie Hall entered the ring to confront Danis after his 15-second submission win over Warren Spencer.
Hall shook hands with the 180lb Misfits MMA champion on a catchweight for their potential fight.
They agreed to a 300lb catchweight, which means the former ‘World’s Strongest Man’ must cut 64lbs.
“He’s been talking s— for a long time, making snide comments on social media, so I thought I’d put my money where my mouth is,” Hall told Bloody Elbow.
“He wanted me to get under 400lb, which I am, so I said I’d get under 300 if he shakes my hand there and then, which he did. So give me 12 weeks to lose 64lb and I will come in and rock his f—ing chin.
“Honestly, I just need one good shot on his face, and he’ll regret shaking my hand.
“I’m not particularly bothered [about the takedown] but I’ll be prepared for the full fight.”
