Brock at the very least has a modicum of experience from his early years as a wrestler and fights in a division where the average age is like 36, and all of the fighters are bad besides maybe 3. One is not like the other for very stark reasons.

I was only comparing and making a point of one thing though, no doubt, I'm not saying Punk is on par with Brock or anything. I just think it's interesting, maybe it's a matter of perception. People here just don't think of Brock as old, but do Punk for some reason. Could be as simple as that he looks kind of tired at times etc. If the average age of one UFC division is 36, isn't that another reason why saying 37 year old punk is old seems unusual? (edit: I meant to say 37 years young Punk) Heavy Metal fucked around with this message at 05:56 on Jun 27, 2016 |

37 is pretty old to make a debut in a sport, regardless of how much experience or training you have under your belt.

Could be as simple as that he looks kind of tired at times etc. He's old in that he decided after having fun rolling a few times a month online via the Gracie Academy that he can fight MMA, which covers many facets that aren't anything that he's even remotely considered until he was signed to the UFC. There's guys that have no amateur fights that would wreck his poo poo, because this sport is all about playing for keeps, and not some Make a Wish thing to suppress a former wrestler's hardon to walkout in UFC gloves.

Avg age of Heavyweight, where the reigning peoples champ is big kfc and counterstrike fan. Its a special division. Punks fighting at 170 yeah? Home to the hitler youth robot and motherfucking shang tsung himself, robert lawler. He isnt fighting someone who cuts weight to reach the fatty limit.

People point to Randy Couture getting into MMA at 33 or whatever but at that point in time he was already a world-class amateur wrestler, and an excellent all-round athlete. Punk is 37 and unathletic and has had lots of injuries. Brock and Randy are old for fighters, but had massive success in relevant sports before MMA as well as being freak athletes. Punk is old for a fighter and has none of their advantages.

Shang Tsung was old in the first MK game, so did we see this Robert guy being old, then later being young? That's the only way we'd know for sure he was absorbing human souls, these are bold claims. Memento posted:Not really because the average age of the division he wants to compete in is 31.375, based on the champion and UFC-ranked top 15. Brock is old too? What have I done. These are young men with their whole lives ahead of them, 37 is the new 27. I'm not saying Punk will be good at learning and executing MMA or anything.

I'm not saying Punk will be good at learning and executing MMA or anything. You said it was odd that CM Punk is being called old for being 37. I am saying that older MMA fighters can still be excellent, if they have a fighting background. Randy was 37 when he won his first title, and that was old for an MMA fighter. Punk will (if he fights) be 37 when he fights for the first time, which is old for an MMA fighter. Brock is coming back to the UFC at age 38, which is old for an MMA fighter. The difference is that old for an MMA fighter can be negated by "decades of top-level competition in relevant combat sports". Punk has none of these. You can't hold up Heavyweight as a shining example for how older dudes can still fight because most of them are terrible and only get wins by throwing BRH knockouts.

I just found it of note that it seemed everybody was saying Punk is old but not Brock. Granted Brock has a lot more going for him, just seemed like an observation to make. If it helps, I have no idea what I'm talking about. While I'm defending Punk for no real reason, I find it odd people keep saying "he's of course not at all a naturally gifted athlete". Seen a few posts saying something like that. I mean, I think doing a springboard move where you jump, balance on the top rope, then catapult your body flying through the air and stuff, that's athletic. And having cardio to last for 30 minutes picking up huge people etc. Just saying. Heavy Metal fucked around with this message at 06:18 on Jun 27, 2016 |

If it helps, I have no idea what I'm talking about. MMA is a lot harder than pro wrestling because guys aren't going to bump for you and will actively resist any offense you initiate against them. Phillip Brooks has no background in any sports so he is probably not used to working hard, also he's a baby. You can't compare him to Brock Lesnar in any way, a guy who had a good record in amateur wrestling and still took a couple years to train before having his first pro fight.

The full pro wrestling schedule was too much for Lesnar and the training is rough too. Training for BJJ people won't go out of their way to injure you to see if you're still "man enough" for it.
