He would be dead. forget Robbie Lawler, I'm thinking Donald Cerrone would give him worse brain damage than the entirety of his pro wrestling career

I'd take CM Punk even if his ceiling in actual MMA will be quite low.

Didn't Daniel Bryan do some training at an MMA gym to make his submission offense look more realistic? I mean other than the "chased guy who robbed his house five blocks and put him in a rear naked choke" thing

Fushin posted:He is training at a top level camp with top level athletes. What makes you think he will be below average when it's all said and done? And do you really think Dana won't give him a title shot one day regardless of how he does? Money talks. Are you familiar with UFC at all because that's not generally how they do things

He's already said himself that it's win win, he either does well and anyone who likes him gets to see it, or he gets beaten silly and anyone who hates him gets to see it. I would say something about the indifferent, but people seem *just so mad* about it all, that doesn't look like the case.

It's good he's keeping realistic expectations and a positive mindset going into it. And scrimmaging with guys that are either getting paid to or want to with him. Also that dog is awesome.

How the hell did we get to championship discussion? It felt kind of like the thread went: "I dunno Punk might not be a bad fighter" "What? He'll never even get a championship shot" "I didn't say anything about the championship, I just said—" "What are you TALKING about HE'S NOT CHAMPIONSHIP MATERIAL I use CAPITAL letters" Anyway I love this whole thing because people mad

I think you're really overestimating how "mad" mma fans are over this. It's more bemusement as we watch people talk about how CM Punk could win because of his pure determination, how his pro wrestling experience could help him win, how CM punk could fight for a title, and how he's "scrimmaging" with top fighters.

He's not getting a title shot because it's not good business to let Punk get murdered by a real fighter.

CM Punk is absolutely, 100% going to get a title shot on PPV. That title will be "Worst Fighter To Win On A UFC PPV Possibly Ever".

The thing I like best about Robbie Lawler is that his body stores up all the power from your punches against him and then lets him deliver it all back to you in a single punch, or several.

if Dana White had any business sense, he'd never let Punk near an actual fighter and instead would just have a CM Punk Open Challenge each week where Punk gets called out by a variety of juggalos and backyard guys and then gets to troll them for ~15-20 minutes play to your strengths

As everyone has mentioned, CM Punk is not fighting anyone who has a bunch of pro wins because no proper commission in the world () would sanction the fight, but for the sake of the pro wrestling posters, the people talking about him getting a title shot "because of the money" or whatever (joking or not), this is the current champion on the left: This is his opponent after Lawler finished him That's him spraying blood at the end of the round and stalking down an equally unemotional serial killer looking motherfucker. He's probably the last person in the UFC I'd want to be locked in a cage with (although they'd all kick my rear end, he's just a dude who is violence personified). I sure as poo poo don't want to see him fight Phil Brooks. Punk will fight a guy who's also making his UFC debut, or maybe has a fight in the promotion under his belt, imo.
