Ben Rothwell wants a piece of Brock Lesnar

There is something about Brock Lesnar that just gets MMA fighters talking. First it was Mike Swick and his description of Lesnar as the most hated man in MMA. 

Now it is former IFL and Aflliction fighter Ben Rothwell who is targeting the UFC heavyweight champion. 

In a recent interview with Cagepotato Rothwell, who is 14-1 in his past 15 fights, describes an anectode of Lesnar being very afraid of the former IFL heavyweight stand out during a sparring session, 

"Actually, a year before he really started in MMA, Lesnar came to our camp for two weeks.  He watched as I - and I'm not happy about it or bragging about it - but I literally knocked a guy into a concussion during sparring with a head kick.  Lesnar just said, ‘Please don't do that to me.'  He's not going to forget that.  He's going to know that one hit from me and that could be it.      

Did "Big Ben" just challenge Lesnar to a duel?

Rothwell only fought once for Affliction and was KO'd by former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski. That victory spurned a Renaissance in Arlovski's career.
