mma brehs are the nikkas Punk been in camp with any good?

Logic telling me CM Gawd takes the L but I've seen first hand what training with elite talent can do for average to borderline trash nikkas before. :wow:

Hes at a good camp. He has the guap so he better be. He is training at Roofus Sports. They got Anthony Pettis(former UFC lightweight champ) Woodley(who spends some of his camp there and is the current WW champ). Askren(2x Div 1 NCAA wrestling champ and WW champ of One FC) Hes around good guys and a top camp but will it help? Hes 37 going against a hungry 25 year old

He has everything to lose

Because if this mma thing doesn't work out he'll be crawling back to the wwe

Punk is a natural talker, a commentary gig in MMA is his if he wants it

Really can't see him going back to the WWE wrestling since him, Vince and Hunter all are very similar in terms of their ability to hold a grudge over being "right"



Gall letting himself get iced and reacting like that is telling.


Experience matters and adrenaline dumps are VERY real. Punk has been in front of all of the pomp and circumstance of this event before Gall has not. That stuff matters I'm telling you.

Punk just too old and this is not his main discipline as much as he has trained for it.

If we look at Kobe's final season in the NBA, he was still great but clearly lost more than a step. Now imagine Kobe going to compete in say tennis at a high level against a 22 year old young buck who lives and breathes the sport. Just not gonna win. I make this comparison cause Punk is around that same age. But lets be real, Punk was never that athletic like a bball God of Kobe's caliber. His elbow drop was always no lift. Just not seeing an unathletic man past his physical prime beating a young buck in his main sport of choice.

What I loved though was Gall's peeps showing how to land a sharpshooter in an MMA fight....now if he can finish Punk with some shyt like that I would pop something serious :russ:
