"I mean, God, if you ask me, my first response would be no. Why? That is a fearsome man.

"There's not many people on this planet that scare me. And Brock Lesnar is definitely one of those.

"But I probably would fight him if the money was right. Yeah, so why not?"

Lesnar debuted in the UFC in 2008 and had eight octagon fights - four for the title.

He initially retired in 2011 but made a dramatic return in 2016 to fight Mark Hunt at UFC 200 - winning before it was chalked off for a failed drug test.

Lesnar has not fought since and is yet to return to WWE since 2023.

Hall meanwhile has not weighed the UFC heavyweight limit of 265lb since he was 18-years-old.

The strongman star lost his boxing debut to rival Hafthor Bjornsson in 2022.

But this year he defeated TikTok pair Jamil and Jamel Neffati in a two-on-one handicap MMA bout.

Hall is now in talks to fight strongman-turned MMA fighter Mariusz Pudzianowski.

He said: "Mariusz Pudzianowski is five times World Strongest Man and we're very similar build, like 6ft 1, 6ft 2. His strength is really portrayed in his fights. 

“He is 47 years old now. I'm 36. So I just think that all these different sorts of things that I've got going on equals the playing field a little bit.

"And I keep asking the question to people, me versus Marius, and everyone's like, 'Wow, that's going to be a really good fight.'
