With UFC 86 in the rearview mirror it’s time to look ahead to some of
the summer’s other big fights. One of those will be a battle between
UFC heavyweights Heath Herring and mixed martial arts newcomer and
former professional wrestler Brock Lesnar Aug. 9 at UFC 87 in
Minneapolis, Minn. Lesnar, who lives in Minneapolis-St. Paul, will be
entering the Octagon for the second time in his career, following a
first-round submission loss to former heavyweight champion Frank Mir at
UFC 81. Lesnar's UFC 87 matchup with Herring was arranged after his
original opponent, Mark Coleman, pulled out of the fight with a knee
injury. Lesnar recently took the time to talk to me by phone about his
career and his preparation for UFC 87. Interview
