CM Punk First "Pro" UFC photoshoot

I didn't really care before but my god I hope this guy wins his debut to shut people up. The amount of hate he gets is ridiculous. I feel sorry for him because I almost think there is nothing he can do to shut people up because even if he wins people will make excuses and discredit it. But FFS people the hate on this guy is absurd.
 
If he earned his chance in the UFC the way pretty much every other fighter does, the complaint wouldn't be so fierce.
 
I don't get why these guys are so embarrassed to admit that they know of these WWE guys. I haven't watched a minute of pro wrestling since the late 90's, but I was aware of Brock and Punk before they came to MMA. It doesn't have to mean you're a loser rasslin' fan if you know these guys. You could just be a knowledgeable person who doesn't have their head shoved up their ass. I don't care at all about golf, tennis, NASCAR or soccer, but I could name their biggest stars.

The best is the dolts that post "I don't watch WWE but I happened to watch it by mistake on Monday & ..."
Then they misspell every name they discuss to 'prove' they are not fans
:P

The hate hasn't even gotten close to Jones levels yet so calm down.
 
I see where he got his fighting stance from:

First thing I thought when I saw that pic. I hope he goes down like him.
 
Dudes training with one of the most technical american kickboxers of all time as his striking coach, he probably can throw a punch better than most of the people on these boards. Chances are he's just showing that logo that the ufc is so proud of...

If you don't have a natural concept of how to fight, you can train for years and still be a clumsy idiot. Judging by how he holds his hands in that photo, I won't be setting any stratospheric expectations.

Not surprised. People were losing there minds when Lesnar got signed by the UFC even though anyone with half a brain knew he was the best athlete in the UFC HW division coming in.

Hey now.. come on. Don Flamenco was a legitimate professional journeyman boxer with dozens of fights under his belt. No need to muddy his name with a comparison to CM Punk.
 
OK:) I'm pretty sure that an average Sherdogger looks more dangerous:)

Also, sign some young HWs!!!!!!!
 
The faces he's making in the pics are even more ridiculous than his physique
 
will he be fighting in a tank top? Cover those lovely titties up?
 
That gyno makes me highly suspect of his "straight edge" lifestyle in his WWE days
 
I'm looking forward to his first fight, dem titties
