Brock Lesnar Pleads Guilty to Hunting Charges, Fined $1,725

|

Former UFC heavyweight champion, Brock Lesnar has pleaded guilty to a hunting infraction in southern Alberta.

Today, a lawyer was able to appear on behalf of Lesnar in a Medicine Hat court room, where he pleaded guilty.

He was accused back in November by fish and wildlife officials of shooting a mule deer buck but only packing the trophy head out, which is apparently illegal in Canada.

Lesnar had the following to say to MMAFighting.com

“As far as I’m concerned, I didn’t disobey the law. I guess in other people’s judgment, they saw it differently. At the end of the day, if they saw fit that I did something wrong, I’m a grown-up and I’ll take my fine and go on with my life.”

The former champ is set to take on Alistair Overeem next Friday (Dec.30) at UFC 141.
