''UFC 141: Lesnar vs. Overeem'' was a mixed martial arts pay-per-view event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Friday December 30, 2011, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UFC 141: Lesnar vs. Overeem )〕 ==Background== The UFC returned to a 10 p.m. ET start with this event. ''UFC 141'' was the last event to feature preliminary fights live on Spike TV. This event marked Brock Lesnar's return to MMA action after being out for over a year due to diverticulitis. The lead up to the fight was rife with controversy regarding his opponent, Alistair Overeem. In November 2011, both competitors were required by the NSAC to comply with out-of-competition drug testing. Lesnar delivered his sample screen on November 21, while Overeem delivered his on November 23. The screen, however, did not meet the standards of the commission. Overeem submitted a second test through his personal physician – which was also deemed unacceptable – before flying out of the country. Overeem was ultimately given a conditional license for the fight by the committee during a meeting held on December 12, 2011. The winner of the main event was expected to face Junior dos Santos in a bout for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. After being defeated by Overeem, Lesnar announced his immediate retirement from the UFC.〔http://espn.go.com/mma/story/_/id/7406718/brock-lesnar-retires-first-round-loss-alistair-overeem-ufc-141〕 〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxBNXdqjwsQ〕 TJ Grant was originally scheduled to face Jacob Volkmann at this event but was forced to pull out due to an undisclosed injury, and was replaced by returning veteran Efrain Escudero.
