Confusion now, Brock Lesnar can not compete till January 9th 2019 because of his previous ban for doping. Rules mean he has to be in the testing pool for 6 months following a ban. He's been in since July 3rd, nullifying any chance of a November bout. All tests will be made public. This doesn't really matter though because he popped pre fight and post fight last time so anything 2-6 weeks before hand (a typical steroid cycle) won't show up until after the fight and after Lesnar has ridden off into the sunset.

Once again it throws the hypocrisy of WWE into question who routinely test superstars for PEDs as part of their wellness policy and suspend them for X amount of days depending on how many times they've popped. Lesnar doesn't have to undertake this as he's contracted part time. He wasn't suspended from WWE after he popped twice under contract with the UFC which again is hypocritical when he's a major player in your company.

I struggle to see Lesnar overcome Cormier without PEDs and even with them it's a hard ask. I'm confident the PEDs last time were to make shape in short notice. He was nowhere near being in shape with 6 weeks notice coming into UFC 200 so that could be the reason. He's got until January at least to make shape. He better pull it off without PEDs or he'll end up with a legacy like Jon Jones and he'll be forgotten as ever being a UFC champion.

Following on. There's obviously backlash at Lesnar being given this opportunity when there's 11 other fighters ranked above him. This is Cormier though. He's made clear Lesnar can draw the money and that he's setting up for retirement.
