But for the time being, UFC President Dana White is keeping quiet on whether a deal will be worked out to facilitate a return to the squared circle.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know,&#8221; said White, according to MMAJunkie. &#8220;We&#8217;ll figure it out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Following his second consecutive first-round loss and his third-consecutive first-round struggle, Lesnar&#8217;s value as a draw in WWE has undoubtedly taken a hit.
