INVADING SOHH CHAMPION
Some of that shyt you wrote is true but you're side stepping the point. We're only talking about Punk deserving to be in the UFC. How cool of a guy he is and what he accomplished outside of fighting is irrelevant.
He got gifted a fight on name alone. I can't waltz into the the PGA/NBA/NHL just because I'm an inspirational guy.
"so, if you diss'n that,..you must be born well off or you have done sumfin to trump punk." this is particularly horseshyt. See, if it's me, I want to be there because I earned it. So that other big players in whatever organization I'm working into, they can't deny that I belong.
He didn't care that he was gifted, that people that it was bullshyt. Whatever, that's on him. Standards are still standards though, and we have every right to hold him to them just like anybody else. Don't give a shyt who you are, back of the line motherfukker. Earn your way in. He would've *never* made it through regional tournaments. Success in one endeavor does not and should not lead to automatic line jumping in another. Prove yourself.
No no no,....
You can critique him being a shyt novice in the octagon.
Yet, so was one of the best counter punchers and pedigreed boxers of all time as well.
Before he was exposed for roid usage.
I don't mind the critique of him in the octagon.
Yet people have taken his performance in the octagon.
to extend to trying to judge him past being an octagon novice.
Plus, ignoring the facts punk was going to go the long way to do this.
Yet was offered by white to take the shortcut close to forty years old.
Just like a former past drawing pedigreed heavyweight and prodigy style talent at middleweight before being outclassed by rjj.
Whom lost the most demoralizing victory in mma history as well.
What I am commenting on easily that the collective you are missing is.
I am not critical of cm punk as a person like others are.
You can not be critical of him in that manner.
Especially, if you yourself have not ever created a real top of the industry grassroots draw yourself in your personal interest and professionally have not assailed to the absolute best in the industry.
As at numerous times in the Indies or WWE he was the absolute best talent on several wrinkles of time and in several different incarnations and relaunches.
What I am addressing is the negative overswelling of being demonstrative to punk outside of the octagon.
Which punk does not deserve and someone critical of him in that manner.
We need to check their pedigree alternative.
As real talk, you can not be critical of punk outside an octagon.
nikkaz need to pattern themselves after him and show his passion to succeed. Not be demonstrative to them cause cm punk you can pick up on what principals it takes to do to make it.
