I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
CM Punk is going to fight people on twitter who said they bought his house and people who call him Phil in public.

And Ryback.

I don't really care what they're saying on the PPV, he's not competing in a professional fight. It wouldn't get sanctioned by a commission just for starters.

i think punk vs ryback ufc rules would be an interesting fight. i bet ryback is slow as poo poo and would give up a sub pretty quick.

book it.

According to the PPV, he's expecting to fight his first fight in 2015. Didn't he just take up jiu jitsu in 2012? Does Punk have any other formal fight training besides 2.5 years of Jiu Jitsu? Jesus christ is he gonna die.

Punk is gonna hit the Go 2 Sleep on some poor dumb fighting man. Maybe if they'd man up and learn how to wrestle, they'd stand a chance against former WWE World Champion CM Punk.

I changed my mind about Lesnar. I want to see CM Punk fight the Green Ranger, because that guy is a loving tool and I'm actually fairly sure Punk could take him.

STOP DOING HEROIN
He'll do one fight in Chicago against the canniest can Dana can find, maybe go the distance if he's lucky, and then see if he wants to do more. This strikes me as one of those bucket list-type things.

If you think that the UFC can't find a complete can for him to fight and get him through the NSAC after all they money they have made them/will make off of this fight you are insane.

This isn't CM Punk taking on Lyoto Machida, this is going to be similar to that Mickey Rourke boxing fight in Russia that happened last week.

Well I hope he doesn't get too badly hurt, but good on him for achieving yet another dream AND getting paid even more money to go on top of the ridiculous amount he already has.

If the best revenge is living well, then he's sure as hell gotten more than his fair share of revenge on WWE.

Maybe one day WWE will politely ask him if HHH can accompany him to the ring for a fight :shobon:

there is, and its the one that is scheduled to fight anderson silva january 31st, leaving him open for a fight with cm punk later in the year

(cm punk's first fight would absolutely not be against nick diaz, though honestly... its an interesting matchup)

Well, it's the possibility of getting bonked in the head once and then getting the next six months off to nap, versus getting bonked in the head and immediately being yelled at "Get up Boxer, there's more plowing to do!"

You know, he's probably going to get bodied by a legitimate fighter that's pissed about these 'part timers and celebrities' getting more money for popping buy rates than said fighter. Punk is now what he hates.
