in the John Morgan story about Brock, Dana referred to Brock's illness as:"He doesn't want to talk about it publically, but he's in bad shape. He's not well. He's not going to be getting well soon." That's not good. The only thing I can think of that would make him look bad if it became public would be some kind of long term damage from steriod use from his WWE days that might of happened. Other than that, what could he have that would possibly make him look bad or be ashamed of? ANy guesses? I'm stumped.

I am seriously wondering if your not right about the roid use having caised damage thats just showing up. The way this story has changed from swine flu to mono to now undisclosed makes me wonder about the issue being a blood disorder or worse kidney/liver damage.

You want to know what illness Brock has? Did you not hear him after UFC 100? The guy said he might get on top of his wife, have you seen her lately? Clearly the man has obtained an STD. I mean his wife is so dirty her crabs have herpes.

I'm guessing Diverticulitis. The symptoms and treatments seem very similar to what has been released so far. He could very well have Mono in conjunction with the Diverticulitis.

I don't if you guys know who Josh Gross is, but he's the former editor of Sherdog.com and a writer for SI.com and probably the most well-educated and informed guy in MMA, period....but he says he personally talked to Greg Nelson(I think that was his name), Brock's trainer, and he said, yes he's in the hospital, he is on anti-biotics for an infection, but it's not even close to as serious or life-threatening and Dana made it sound at the press confererence. So i guess it comes down to who to believe, Dana or Brock's trainer and which one is more informed about Brock

I think it is more the fact that whatever it is, there have been instances of people getting seriously ill and even dying. Now, there have most likely been people who have recovered just fine and gotten over it rather easily. It is just the unknown of how serious Brock's is, as well as his Mono added into the mix. That is just how I see it.

So its not life threatening but what about career threatening? What did Greg Nelson say about that?

The way Josh talks about it, he says that it's all been over-blown and that he should be home on his own pretty soon. Might take some recovery time to get over it, but nothing to cause him to be out of commision or career ending from his point of view.
edit:did you read the mma junkie story? Sounds like everything is ok now says Dana. Sometimes Dana is like a drama queen about stuff. I guess that's part of what promoters are good at, over-hyping everything and drawing interest in things =)
