Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: sometimes passing just isn't an option.

I figure after Punk loses they'll have him fight that Mike Jackson guy who apparently is still under contract with the UFC after his Gall fight.

I don't think Punk could beat an MMA journalist.

We talked about it once upon a time. The professional wrestling posters were upset at the idea of the roided up fight commentator with umpteen years more experience at...everything would beat the bad broken professional wrestler.

I don't have any confidence in Rogan being able to stay away from weed long enough for him to pass a pre-fight drug test. Unless we're talking about it happening in like, RIZIN or somewhere where that wouldn't be an issue

for real, people talking about joe rogan beating cm punk in a fight is the highest point of this thread

Which was odd to me at the time since it seemed like such an innocuous thing to suggest that Punk would lose to someone with a lot more training than him, but I guess some people don't know about Rogan's martial arts background.

They only test for weed on fight night with a pretty high threshold. You only have to stop a week out and your fine. Rogan would fail because he's on TRT.

CM Punk will lose.

CM Punk winning would be the most UFC in 2016 thing.

I have friends who are like doctors and lawyers and train twice a week that could beat up CM punk, whether joe rogan could beat him isnt even a question imo. Its a skill like anything else, its like if a guy who never dribbled a basketball before picked one up for the first time at age 38 and challenged a guy who has been playing at the rec center for 20 years and played in high school to a pick-up game

Punk not doing a practice weight cut then telling Faber in the latest Embedded he doesn't have a nutritionist for his weight cut his wife is just making his meals is really something.

How do we know he isn't trying to sell the fight as "oh man gotta see this guy get his dick kicked off into the crowd".

I can't believe this is really happening. I honestly never expected Punk to fight

I wonder how much he misses weight by. Didn't he need to cut ~30 lbs before refusing to use a nutritionist?

lol. the first time i ever cut weight for a fight while training at duke roufus (which was my first fight ever and first time cutting weight), i had to cut 30 pounds to make 265 (i was fat back then) and the amateur coach was all "nah, don't do a test cut, you look like you'll do fine you look like youll drop weight easily." it was amature so same-day weigh-ins. i had to rehydrate in like 2 hours and gassed about 2 minutes into the thing. i barely won with a hail mary sub because my opponent was even fatter and a short dude and i just kinda plowed him into the fence and went for the flying triangle, which he was too gassed and inflexible to escape.

so ya, i absolutely believe they wouldnt have him do a test cut.
