I get the skepticism of CM Punk but I'm pretty sure he could win a fight against the moldy bones of Bruce Lee. Hell I'd bet on him vs most corpses.

CM Punk doing freakshow fights vs Michael Jackson impersonators and the like would be the best thing ever. Have him fight Doink the clown, Vanilla Ice, two midgets stacked in a bear costume. Then when it gets stale bring in Butterbean to murder him.

The funniest outcome would be Dana finding the saddest string of cans in MMA history so Punk can go 20-0. Have him fight a guy with no arms or something. Maybe a couple legally blind opponents. In 10 years they can have him fight a 61 year old Ken Shamrock.

So he gets to hang around in the gym all day, collect free healthcare and have fake fights with his buddies in front of a crowd of screaming people? I can't imagine he ever wants to actually fight, he must be having the time of his life. It's like kids space camp but for MMA-loving ex-pro wrestlers.

Ooh, Clevland's driveable and it's headlined by the Overeem/Miocic match. Might go as I've never seen MMA live, the card looks halfway decent, and I can say I was at what will probably be Punk's only MMA match.

I dunno about it being his last match. He'll probably go on fighting D-list celebrities like Verne Troyer, Frank Stallone and Vanilla Ice.

(CM Punk takes himself waaaaaaaay too seriously for this, but I badly want to see him in The Surreal Ultimate Fighter)

wait, is Punk seriously still doing MMA

can't he just go back to Ring of Honor or w/e

He's retired and MMA is his hobby instead of woodworking or making model airplanes. It's a little weird he got a pro fight because of his wrestling fame, but not surprising he'd keep at it after losing.

If a guy from a rec league baseball or hockey team got a chance to play with the pros for one game, it's doubtful they'd quit after the experience.

Probably not the easiest solution, but they could make Punk a celebrity fight ambassador or some poo poo. Send him to feds on Fight Pass to fight their schlubs. Anyone good enough to be worth getting under UFC contact is already light years ahead of Punk's skillset.

To get into the Ultimate Fighter house you have to beat CM Punk. In an Octagon, comic book shop, Whole Foods, doesn't matter where just as long as there's a camera running.
