CM Punk may have had a lucrative WWE career but it looks like his octagon career won’t be anything to aspire to. The 35 year old pro wrestler is 0-1 having been defeated in under 2 minutes in his debut by bjj brown belt Mickey Gall.
Still CM Punk, who recently got his blue belt keeps working at it.
Recently older footage of Punk sparring with Askren resurfaced:
Askren by many accounts one of the best wrestlers to have gone into mma pulled off a stone cold stunner on unsuspecting Punk.
Dana White will still give Punk a new shot. He was reportedly saying:
“I like that guy. He’s a good dude,” White said. “He wants one more. He wants to get another shot. I’m going to give it to him.”
“He’s a completely different case than most normal human beings, so I’m going to give him another shot,” White said.

Will the UFC try to find him an easier out in front of the hometown crowd, or is the former WWE champ just going to have to sink-or-swim like everyone else?
