"If there was any time for Brock Lesnar to come back, it just make sense that it would be for UFC 200," Lesnar said in the promo.

Lesnar, 38, talked about not being healthy during his first UFC run. He said that he doesn't plan to do any trash talking, and that he just wants to reclaim his loss due to illness and to have fun. Lesnar's last fight in the UFC was a first round TKO loss to Alistair Overeem in December of 2011.

"I'm not here to build a fight, I'm just excited to get in there and may the best man win," stated Lesnar.

Hunt, 42, has a 12-10-1 record with 9 of his 12 wins coming via KO or TKO. Hunt's last fight was a first round knockout over Lesnar's former foe, Frank Mir, at UFC Fight Night last March in Brisbane, Australia. He said that he's not looking to knock Lesnar out, as that "just happens" when someone fights him.

"If I get a knockout then that's it, I don't have to knock Brock out," Hunt said. "That just happens. That's just the way it is when fighting me."
