Lesnar had been scheduled to fight Shane Carwin in the main event as part of UFC 106 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas on Nov. 21 but due to an illness Lesnar withdrew from the match siting his inability to train properly. Their fight has been tentatively rescheduled for Jan. 2 as part of UFC 108 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
