Could you take CM Punk?

[RudimarChute]

Seriously though, I genuinely believe I would have a chance against Punk and I assume many of you who train or trained have had this thought as well. I'm not flattering myself and any legit professional MMA fighter would murder my life, but Punk is obviously not a legit MMA fighter yet.

When they showed him training and grappling he looked utterly amateur, almost as if he had never even been in a fist fight. His grappling looked terrible too, although he appears to have a bit better natural instincts in grappling.

Maybe the Punk that shows up to fight will be a completely different animal than what was shown in the promos but it's doubtful. Gall is ending this one in the first.

 

[chitoortiz]

No.

But I could get on my bike and 30-27 him no problem.

Would receive lots of boos i imagine. But I'll tell the crowd off in my post fight speech with Rogan.

 

[Burning Hammer]

You think anyone on Sherdog could take one of these bad boys and live to tell about it? Not even John Cena could handle a GTS and he NEVER GIVES UP

 

[Sonny Qc]

Bar fight yes.

 

[Credo]

Yes, i really think so.

 

[DS7]

I would KTFO him with that GTS move.

 

[Sleepdancer]

No he's been training grappling and shit for two years, he'd submit me.

 

[Davey Crockett]

I'm 6ft3 so I'd easily destroy anyone in WW and below.

 

[KrowX]

CM Punk just came out of a professional MMA training camp where he was trained by great coaches and trained with several high level mixed martial artists. Unless you're some sort of long time devoted MMA guy, i don't see why you think you would beat him.

 

[BRASIL WAND]

No doubt.


And in style. Gogo from mount cuz I haz NO #HESPECT for his BJJ defense.

 

[ClosetVitorFan]

I will reserve judgment until after his fight.

 

[ultimateriley-o]

I would probably gas myself out trying to close out the show in the first, and then spend the last two rounds hunting for ill-advised leg locks before losing a 29-28, 29-28, 28-28 majority decision (one judge scores the first round a 10-8 and I use that to demand a rematch, insisting he got lucky to survive).

 

[PivotPunch]

Punk trained for 2 years nonstop 24/7 at an elite gym with a lot of personal attention and he is even if not a great athlete surely a reasonable athlete let alone compared to the average Sherdogger. 99% here wouldn't beat anyone in anything

 

[Hroros]

Why cant de let him fight first? So many haters.

 

[Money509]

Id knock him out to be honest.

 

[Goatenstein]

Exactly. Punk has dealt with men who are 300+ pounds of natural muscle. He's coming from the clean WWE to fight roid monsters in UFC.

CM Punk is 6ft2, so I wouldn't put too much stock into that.

 

[Weuylf]

I can take AJ Lee.

 

[lorenzofertatta]

Probably. I'm bigger and much much stronger and have rolled with far better fighters than this joker

 

[Davey Crockett]

Yeh I know man, I was just kidding. Mighty Mouse would wrap me up like a pretzel.
