A planned rubber match between Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir may not happen after all. Dana White said that he had to re-think the matchup after hearing from fans.

“People have been saying on my Twitter that they’re not happy with that fight,” White said. “It’s something I need to re-think.”

White told fans the matchup “made sense” after Lesnar dropped the title to Cain Velasquez last month and Mir rebounded with a third-round KO over Mirko Cro Cop.
