I remember seeing Butterbean KO Bart Gunn when I was young and it might have been the first time I ever saw a dude get straight KO'd and understand what was happening enough to realise that Gunn wasn't okay so I thought Butterbean had killed him.

Huh, never knew Nakamura had fought in MMA.
He did pretty well for himself too. Cool stuff.

I'm sure he's toeing the company line there but the answer to that question leads one to believe that Cena doesn't actually know the UFC isn't pro wrestling.

That being said, I don't think it's his real opinion either.

I've never seen him do anything especially athletic in the matches of his I've seen, though I can't say I've seen his life's work. He's not like Cesaro or whatever.

Punk: Your honour, I may have been at the crime scene and I may be the owner of the murder weapon and my DNA may be on the crime scene BUT WHAT DO MY KNUCKLES SAY?
Judge: Wha-
Punk: WHAT. DO. MY. KNUCKLES. SAY?
Judge: They say "I didn't do it" in what appears to be pink highlighter. Case dismissed.

Meltzer says Punk's fight is happening in August or September

Brock is officially coming back AND fighting before Punk :lol:

I believe the context for the Aug/Sep date is that there's a reality show for FOX in production about CM Punk, which is probably going to be detailing his camp and prep for the fight.

"Episode 10 - A Dream Ends? - April is shocked when she checks Punk's leg to find an extremely yellow bruise on his thigh. Punk's dream hangs in the balance as doctors determine whether or not he will be able to make the walk to the octagon. (Series end)"

CM Punk might be a white belt, but when he picked it up from the gym after finishing his GracieAcademy.com registration, I bet he went an expensive gym that makes their belts out of better materials so he's definitely a good white belt.

Here's Punk attempting to put an armbar submission on someone not fighting him:



This doesn't inspire much confidence, does it?

Everyone knows that Jericho's jits is so good, he can make anything look effortless. You'll never see a more skillful armbar escape.

Losing does not imply credibility loss, jesus woman. No wonder you have your fans rioting in the stands.

I don't know, I watched Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit go to a razor tight decision and as soon as I heard Robbie won I immediately realised Condit is a terrible fighter and was never good.

Speak for yourself, I haven't slept a wink since Phillip "CM Punk" Brooks defiled the noble sport of MMA because of my seething rage. I accept the wife beaters, drug cheats, bank robbers, mobsters, yakuza but pro wrestlers who aren't Sakuraba is a bridge too far.

During the UFC Fan Expo Q+A where Cerrone used the F word and got in trouble, CM Punk said he scored Aldo vs Edgar 2 for Edgar.

It's on the main card, the poster's out. Third from top, it seems, so just before the co-main.

I wonder if they'd just put Punk on Fightpass because he doesn't want his rear end to get pulverized on PPV

They'll do whatever makes the money in any give scenario, and that means PPV this time.

CM Punk is a turd and I can't wait to see him get beat up.

Actually he had "i won by ko in round 1 and got the belt even though it's not a title fight" tattooed on his knuckles in really small font so he's going to be champ.

It's enjoyable to dump on the guy, but my feeling is that he's going to have the basic fundamentals and ability and might look okay for what he really is, but that he's also in his late thirties, heavily beaten up by the pro wrestling and that it's very possible that while Gall and Punk might be around the same level skill wise, Gall is not 37 or so and will take it on youth and the benefits of having it.

but the sheer torque and power Punk throws with has dethroned the king.



Actually, I just wanted to post that Tyson gif as a palate cleanser.
