CM Punk makes his UFC debut on Sept. 10th (Punk got rocked)
- Thread starter Responsible Allen Iverson
- Start date
Title shot? I don't think Dana wants a live death on his watch. Here's the new champ winning the title from one of the toughest guys in MMA. Now imagine if Punk's in there
Punk got Brock down repeatedly at Summerslam 2013. These 170'ers ain't ready.
Tyron Woodley don't want no smoke
nah seriously tho we would witness a live decapitation if they put Punk in there with ANYONE top 12ish at that weight class especially a Woodley or Lawler.
? I got Punk
The thing is people to me are somewhat overrating Mickey gall ( doesn't mean he won't win ) they are acting like he's fighting prime GSP or something. Like they said in the show what happens if he can't KO or submit punk right away ? If punk can hang for a round it's gets interestingIt'd be dope if Punk won, but it's practically impossible for me to envision a Punk post-fight victory interview happening.
I just can't wrap my head around that

Honestly if Punk just makes it past round 1 that's a success in my eyes
At the end of the day he's a 37 year old man in his first fight against a dude in his 20s.

If punk looks anyway competent and he wants to fight more he should get more fights . If he wants to get better the only way is to keep training and fighting better competition. Gall looks good and hungry and as we get closer I think he's going to win but punk needs the fights to get experienceHonestly if Punk just makes it past round 1 that's a success in my eyes
It's a glorified photo op breh
I love MMA fighting for the entertainment but dont know much about the techincal aspects
Thoughts/ critiques on CM Punk's and Mickey's open workout? (I know they are mostly exhibition, but still)

I honestly expect Punk to lose via 1st round TKO. 
Gall has alot more to lose than Punk does. Can you imagine being the guy that lost to CM Punk in his first MMA match?
I don't care if dude is a scrub or not. Losing to a pro wrestler with no MMA experience is a hard pill swallow. Gall is going to destroy Punk. Mark my words

37yrs old with a bad back & knees does equal more fights, even Punk himself has hinted before that this might just be a one & done.
I'm not really that much more knowledgeable than you breh. I know nothing about boxing and I've watched a few BJJ competitions, but I've only really wrestled for a couple of years in high school.
@THEREALBRAND @The Infamous and @The G.O.D II would have way more to say about this than I do
From what I can see, Punk looks pretty bad on the ground. I don't know if he's really that bad or he's just fukking around...probably a combination of the two. Mickey looks way more athletic than Punk. Mickey obviously looks like he's miles ahead of Punk when it comes to jiu jitsu, but he is a brown belt and Punk still looks like he's starting to learn BJJ.
