Idk if anyone on here is a fan of UFC or WWE but I am and I'd like to talk about something recently that I found shocking. CM Punk recently got fired from the WWE and Dana White, president of the UFC, had given him a contract to fight in the UFC in 2015. Personally this aggravates me due to the fact that I''ve been watching UFC since it started and I've had a lot of respect for the fighters and the sport itself. My personal beliefs are that CM Punk has no business in the UFC, he will as he should because he has yet to earn the privelege to fight in the UFC. CM Punk is 36 years old, doesn't know what weight class he will fight in or where he will train, he has little experience ever sparring and on the occasions he has sparred it was with inexperienced people, and the one thing that he proclaims to be his strength is the fact that he has trained in California with Rener Gracie off and on. His one strength is Brazilian Jiu-jitsu of which he is a white belt, the lowest rank. He's had no professional fights and the only reason why he's getting a shot in the UFC is not because of his talent but because he is a celebrity to make the fans pay to watch just like Kimbo Slice, who also failed in the UFC. I'm dissapointed in the UFC becoming a company revolving around money and not the love and talent of the sport of mixed martial arts. What do you guys think?
