CM Punk's UFC debut is becoming the Duke Nukem Forever of MMA... edit: Didn't realize this was already said. I'll never be original...

Despite Punk's back surgery, I think this fight can still happen. As long as they put greater emphasis on ring psychology and storytelling and less on crazy bumps and high spots.

– Matt Brown recently spoke with Great MMA Debate podcast, here are the highlights…
On CM Punk’s Injury: “What’s his name? That f**king wrestler guy. That f**king punk guy. He’s injured now. He’s puss-ing out again. I’m going to guess that he already got the epidural steroid injection. They put it down your spine to relieve the inflammation. If not, I don’t think he would have been walking. If it’s bad enough he’s having surgery I don’t know that he would have been walking into the cage like that [on Feb. 6]. It’s possible he just gutted it out and walked up there. “Regardless, that’s bad. I didn’t have to get surgery and that s**t is never the same. When you get surgery it’s never the same again.”
Is CM Punk a Fighter?: “This guy, he aint no fighter,” said Brown. “People don’t understand what it’s like sitting in that locker room for two to three hours knowing a guy down the hall is going to try to f**king murder you. That feeling in indescribable. The nerves, people call it fear. That feeling is not to be envied. Personally, I do envy it but that’s what separates a fighter from everyone else. “Conquering that fear takes something different than I think most people have and I question whether CM Punk has that or not.”
On What It Will Be Like If Punk Fights: “Now he’s got to face this kid in the ring right after,” said Brown. “You could see there wasn’t any showmanship on CM Punk all of a sudden. There wasn’t any s**t talking, no flashiness. All of sudden it’s this humble guy and reality is setting in when you’re facing your opponent for the first time. It’s looking at you in the face. That’s only going to grow as the fight gets closer. “In the locker room, that’s when it all comes to fruition. All that s**t creeps into your mind. Mark Coleman calls it ‘the worm of doubt.’ That kind of s**t? I don’t know if CM Punk is made for that. I don’t think pro wrestling gets you ready for that.”

By the time CM Punk debuts it'll be WrestleMania 38. He'll probably be walking at roughly the same pace as the Iron Shiek.

It would be funny if he never makes it to a fight and then returns to WWE with a "biggest star in MMA" gimmick.
Edit: ufCMma Punk.

f*** it, if I beat a guy up so bad that a totally different guy wound up in a hospital bed, I'd have a bit of an attitude, as well.

I guess Punk will have plenty of time to work on those comics he is/was writing...did that ever happen?

I guess Punk will have plenty of time to work on those comics he is/was writing...did that ever happen? He's still co-writing Drax. I don't know if its a limited series or he's set to leave after a set amount of issues. Yes CM Punk is/was writing a character played by Batista.

As someone who effed up his back shoveling snow, I would also like to announce my UFC fights are going to be postponed.
Thank you
