CM Punk just confirmed in an interview during UFC 181 with Joe Rogan that he will compete for the UFC. Insane!

I like Punk, but I really do feel this isn't going to go well for him.

Unless they give him a total soup can this isn't going to end well.

If he actually ever does fight I have a feeling he'll be accepting Vince's apology pretty quick!

I'm trying to think of who they could reasonably match him up with and I just can't figure it out.

All in Vince's plan.
He'll get knocked out so hard he'll have amnesia of the past couple of months. "Hey Vince. So. What're my plans for Mania 30 again?"

Are we seriously seeing a veiled "Pro wrestlers aren't as tough as MMA fighters!" thread right now? It's not like he's going to be competing above his weight class, he had BJJ training before he left WWE and there's no telling how much more he's done since he left. He's got a shot at being a decent competitor but no, let's write him off on account of sour grapes.

The individuals can go either way, but as activities go pro wrestling is not as tough as MMA fighting. The odds of anyone getting into MMA and having legitimate success at his age with his injuries are long. But this is gonna be lots of fun, I in no way wish to dog CM Punk on it.

I don't think this will end as badly as most seem to think. Punk and Dana White aren't fools, Punk will all the time he needs and be fed a can to start, it is fight 2 or 3 when he has to step it up that it'll be interesting to see what he does. Then even if he loses, so what? He lived a dream and goes back to sitting on his couch in Chicago and catching Cub and Blackhawk games.
