Vince doesn't think of UFC as competition. He sees what he does as completely separate. I don't think that should be the case, but I don't think he cares if Brock Lesnar gets killed in an octagon as Universal Champion. It's s big, ugly fake red plastic-looking belt. UFC won't even mention it and Brock won't come to the ring if he has it.
The drug-testing is more of a reason UFC would be weary, but they also like their PPV money, and Brock is money in the UFC because he knows how to play heel and do things like beat the piss out of Mark Hunt and then test positive for PEDs.
As long as Brock is willing to make appearances and be the most over thing he's got, then I don't think he really cares what happens in the UFC.
