WWE star Bobby Lashley eyes combat sport return at 48-years-old as he entertains MMA and boxing offers
Despite turning 48-years-old last month, Bobby Lashley is still keen to have another fight after leaving the WWE.
The former amateur wrestling standout fought for Bellator and Strikeforce during his last period away from the WWE. He also kept up wrestling with other promotions, and is now looking at fighting, wrestling and perhaps even boxing.
Lashley is famously jacked and looks nothing close to his actual 48-years-of-age. During his MMA career he went 15-2 and was at one point being eyed up by the UFC, before opting for Bellator with whom he had his last fight in 2016.

Since then, he has been spotted training for a fight return, and he was asked by The Bo and Them Show on Dallas/Fort Worthâs Lone Star 92.5 what his future plans will be.
âI do a lot of real estate,â he explained when asked about his next plans, which also include fighting and acting. âIâve been linking with some real estate professionals down here [in Texas] to bring some of my properties down here.â
âIâm doing it all. I look at it this way; YOLO, you only live once. But I have a lot of gas in the tank. Iâm in great shape. I feel good. Iâm motivated. Iâm rested.â
During his second run with WWE Lashley headed up âThe Hurt Businessâ group, and became WWE Champion which had eluded him in his earlier career. However, he appears to not be in the promotionâs upcoming plans.
