Lesnar Admitted To Hospital:

Local radio here in Minnesota is reporting that Brock Lesnar is facing surgery on some kind of abdominal or intestinal problem. He has been hospitalized. I have no further details. Local radio mentioned this very briefly, it was only a few seconds. It was KTLK-FM 100.3, they are a FOX affiliate. I'll post more if they add more details.

That basically confirms what was reported on TMZ. Good to have another source since TMZ can be hit or miss.

Bleacher Report on Lesnar, says Lesnar "collapsed" in Canada:

Brock Lesnar Needing Surgery, May Never Fight Again | Bleacher Report

FOX mentions that it may be Chron's Disease, or possibly Colitis.

There is another site which says it's a form of cancer, but I'd rather not post that because it's far too serious and I don't want to post anything that is probably nonsense.

I truly hope he gets well.

City Pages:

Does Brock Lesnar have Colitis, Crohn's Disease, or something else? - Minneapolis / St. Paul News - City Pages - The Blotter

Says it's not AIDS or cancer, possibly diverticulitis.

City Pages also says that Lesnar's camp does not want to reveal the exact diagnosis.

*...it's probably not Chron's Disease -- Chron's doesn't require surgery.

you can live with Chron's Disease if you're lucky. Expect Lesnar to lose a lot of weight; be careful Anderson !

Bodog Beat:

Brock Lesnar Sick - Bodog Beat

Says that Dana White is trying to get Brock admitted to the Mayo Clinic:

Whatever Lesnar has, it must be some seriously bad stuff.

Can't be intestinal because sherdoggers have already diagnosed it as tic fever or diabetes.
