Two things I like from this whole situation:
1) A strong anti-domestic violence message was promoted by both the WWE and its top star in a way that didn't exploit the situation, but was still direct.
2) More people know about CM Punk now than a week ago. #TeamBreezy aside, he has picked up deal of supporters and being one of the few to openly take an anti-womanbeater stance has struck a chord with a lot of people.

Punk's larger and has a higher pain threshold. So yeah, he'd probably win this.

In what exactly? All i can find is that he is a black belt in "martial arts". And a black belt doesn't mean you're an expert. It literally just means you've been taught the entire repertoire for that martial art. I honestly don't doubt for a second that CM Punk could take Chris Brown in a fight. Punk has over ten years of experience in professional wrestling. Im willing to guess he deals with being hit much better than Chris Brown. CM Punk is a professional worker, he may know a bit of muay thai, not sure how much exactly, but I'd take the guy with a black belt any day. The verdict is still out on his legitimacy, but I believe he was trained in karate. Add that to his fantastic psychical condition and Punk's surely not stellar condition and I see a landslide victory. It wouldn't be right and I'd love to say Punk could take 'em, but I strongly doubt it. Punks been doing martial arts for a long time. (starting at 17:03) I think he's got more than a shot especially considering that he'd be fighting a woman beating coward.

I guess since this has turned into a tale of the tape fantasy wise lol, would Punk's current lingering injuries, and fatigue from constant road travel be a factor in this bout?? edit: also, i dont think i'd be throwing out my hardest kicks at a photoshoot, just letting that be known. That's what I'm saying. CM Punk is self admittedly beaten up. Last I checked he was reporting a broken hand. And yes, the live performances Chris Brown puts on would be comparable in many physical aspects to that of a live match. No, he isn't being slammed repeatedly on his back, but that's kind of my point. With all the demanding choreography he performs during his live shows for what is likely a thirty to sixty-plus minute set (far longer than your average house or Raw main event), I'm willing to wager he's doing all the work without any of the psychical abuse of your average athlete/wrestler. Like it's been said, this is all fantasy booking but a lot of things add up in Brown's favor. Also, those who say capoeira is fake or "gay," educate yourself. That clip you posted was a bigger work than this whole fiasco. Here's a true KO. Does Chris Brown actually know capoeira? Being able to do some acrobatic dancing isn't the same thing. If your point is that people who know capoeira can be capable and dangerous martial artists, fine, but dancing, as good of a workout as it can be, isn't the same thing as being able to actually knowing how to fight.

Alright, now that we've all discussed which one would win in a fight, lets guess which one would win in a soufflé baking competition. I go with Brown.

And we've reached the "who would win in an actual fight?" phase. Excellent. I can only assume next is "who would bring in a bigger Wrestlemania buyrate".

Tyson was legitimately the scariest man on the planet for a long while, and his legal issues were cloudy at best. Chris Brown is a whiny little diva, with who there is no issues about what he had done.
