Not a very good one , he signed a guy in his late 30s who's already beat up to multiple fights :usure:

He signed a guy who left wrestling amid controversy and had (and still has) the opportunity to bring in a significant amount of new eyes on the product who either want to see him win or get knocked out. Even if Punk never fights, the risk was worth it as long as White didn't give out guaranteed money. :mjpls:

If he loses his first fight it's not a good investment , he's no Brock Lesner

Jesus that has me ashamed of my own sparring. I have a good jab apparently, it's just that I forget to throw it. Also forget to move:jbhmm:

Boxing is a skill that needs to be honed since youth .mma people can get away with just being strong and athletic due to it being a relatively new sport that doesn't pay that well ...so competition is vastly different

Punk is to old and to beat up to have a chance at shining in UFC or boxing if he had went that route. Those combat sports are for young men, not for men pushing 40.
