The latest issue of Power Slam magazine out of the U.K. has an interview with Brock Lesnar. Here are some highlights from the interview:

Brock on leaving WWE to join the NFL:

Do you regret leaving WWE in March 2004 to take a crack at the NFL?

Absolutely not. It's the best thing I ever did.

You walked away from a prime spot and a $1 million-per-annum downside guarantee.

Yeah.

No regrets over that?

Not at all, no. By the time I was done and wanted to leave the company, you couldn't have paid me enough money to stick around. I wasn't having fun anymore... You live only once on this planet, and I would rather know the outcome of something than regret never trying it. My whole life, I've accepted different challenges and challenged myself in different ways. A lot of people don't do that. A lot of people don't take risks. A lot of people are comfortable living their lives that way. But I'm a risk-taker. At least I gave (football) a shot and I know.

I bet a lot of people in WWE were chuckling to themselves when you were cut from your developmental contract by the Minnesota Vikings in August 2004.

I'm sure there was. But I don't care. I'm living my own life: I'm not living anyone else's. If they're happy with what they're doing, that's fine with me.

Brock on UFC: I understand that you signed a two-year contract with UFC in October. Can you tell us anything about it?

Why would I want to? That's my business and none of yours.

Long-term, you must have your eye on the UFC heavyweight title.

Absolutely. I want to become the champion.

Brock on wrestling Kurt Angle in an exhibition amateur wrestling match in 2002 and Kurt's MMA aspirations: I understand that Kurt Angle challenged you to an amateur wrestling match shortly after your arrived in WWF/WWE. Is that true?

Yeah. I pinned him in 30 seconds and it was over.

You pinned him him? The story I heard was that he defeated you.

Well, I don't know where you're getting your information.

So you definitely beat Angle in that amateur wrestling match?

Yeah.

Kurt has talked endlessly about MMA since he left WWE in August 2006. But he hasn't actually done anything in the sport yet. Do you think he'll ever take a fight?
