Brock Lesnar could be in for a third stint in the UFC, with manager Paul Heyman saying he is primed for a return if he chooses to do so.

Lesnar's contract with WWE expires soon after Wrestlemania 34, where he's booked to defend his Universal Championship.

The end of his WWE run could leave the 40-year-old poised to return to the octagon for one more UFC run.

Heyman told TMZ Sports Lesnar will return to the UFC if his mind is set on fighting once again.

"I think Brock Lesnar does whatever Brock Lesnar wants to do," he said.

"If Brock Lesnar wants to fight in UFC, Brock Lesnar will fight in UFC. If Brock Lesnar wants to fight in WWE, he will fight in WWE."

Heyman said Lesnar is physically in a better state to fight than many of the athletes in UFC.

"The time away actually makes him better because his body gets a chance to heal," he said.

"The problem with these UFC fighters - and they’re all fantastic athletes, top of the line in the entire world - is that they wear their bodies down in these training camps. 

"All these guys that are cutting weight are just destroying their own bodies.

"Brock Lesnar’s probably the healthiest fighter to enter UFC, if he decides to do that. He’s always ready."
