Did CM Punk's UFC run make Brock's look better?

[Clippy]

Thinking about how they both wrestlers.

No fan of Brock - he was in the right place at the right time. Fighting big names in the HWs who's let's face it - a division of big name old guys who are worn and torn.

So Brock had a surprisingly good run - and got gifted that title shot ... against a 44 year old

Cut to CM Punk - also from wrestling - fights some guys ... and loses

Does this add credence to Brock's repertoire?

CM Punk showed us it's hard for Wrestlers to convert - but Brock kinda made it happn Captn'

CM Punk makes everyone look better

If CM Punk was juiced to the gills and had to cut to make 165, I'm sure he'd have had a similar level of success

Brock was a different kind of wrestler first, in case you actually didn't know.

But cm punk makes everyone's ufc run look better, specially mike jackson's.

You realise Brock was a credentialed wrestler though right and I’m not talking about the wwe.

 

[HHJ]

Theres no comparison other than they came from the WWE. Brock actually came from a combat background. It was in his blood.

The last guy he fought is a complete can and he had his way with Punk.

CM could take everything under the sun and still wouldn't have an ounce of the talent Brock has. Brock is an NCAA champion, life long amateur wrestler still to date. Made it to the NFL with decent numbers, and is just an all around demi god of an athlete. There's no comparison and there never will be.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Brock is a legit wrestler, and has good takedowns and very good control on top. He also has big power and can still drop guys on the feet if he connects properly, like Herring, Randy.

Punk would get put into a coma by sherdoggers, no one on these forums I'd have as a underdog against him, except maybe you Clippy because I know you're too lovely to hurt someone.

 

[Draxton]

Not comparable at all.

You don’t remember his war with the photographer and his stellar submission defence against that biter Micky Gall?

 

[TitoGod]

Brock at the idea of being compared to CM Punk
