Carwin: Lesnar Bout ‘Not Happening’ at UFC 108

Shane Carwin’s wait just got longer.

His scheduled Nov. 21 title fight against Brock Lesnar already postponed, the unbeaten heavyweight contender on Wednesday announced that the UFC champion will not be prepared to defend his crown at UFC 108 on Jan. 2 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

According to Carwin, Lesnar has been diagnosed with mononucleosis, a viral infection that results in extreme fatigue that can linger for two to three months.

“Guys my manager Jason Genet just told me that UFC 108 is not happening,” Carwin wrote at shane-carwin.com. “Brock has Mono and what the UFC has told me is that I have earned a title shoot [sic] but I have to wait for the title holder. I hope Brock gets well soon.”
