Lesnar has Mononucleosis... OFFICIAL Source.
Lesnar has mono; date with Carwin in limbo - UFC - Yahoo! Sports

I'm certain no one posted this source before.

Dana: “We’re still trying to figure it out and I’m really not sure where any of it stands right now,” White said.

There you go, confirmed, approved and certified. UFC 108 is out of the question for Brock.

No way the NSAC would clear him if he has documented splenomegaly( enlargement of the spleen). Don't blame Brock he wouldn't even be allowed to fight even if he wanted to in fear of Splenic rupture.

Mononucleosis or "kissing sickness" actually puts you out of physical activity for a long while, I know people who have had to take a break from any training, for months. And after that, you need to train yourself back up.

Very bad news for any athlete, and I would think especially for a heavyweight..

Why not Nog vs Carwin, seeing as Carwin was fighting Brock for the strap anyway?

Doesn't sound good. I'm sure he'll recover he's a big dude.

I never really saw Carwin as deserving a title shot anyways, not that it means much... He pretty much just shit talked his way into the Brock fight...but IMO Nog and Cain are more deserving.
