Overhead press: Not even once
His shoulders are just sad to look at. No thickness at all.

I like Punk for what he's trying to do. In the end this could wind up being funny, though.

Even in his prime years in wrestling he was always known as a guy who overcame a distinct lack of pure athleticism. Of all the guys to make the leap to MMA from wrestling he seems like the oddest and unlikeliest.

lol tattoos, wait until they hit 60 with sag-ttoos
Yeah and the guys who werent all that athletic in mma had trained martial arts for awhile, so I just can't imagine the type of fighter they will attempt to feed to him. Would be funny if he lost to the sacrificial lamb that the ufc sets him up with.

Or take HGH and stay ripped like Vince McMahon
He's not looking in GREAT shape, but then again fighters generally have more of a practical strength look than an aesthetic one. So who knows.

He has this guy's build (who fought at featherweight briefly)
but none of the skill
if he fights at LHW or middleweight, he's going to be in for a rough time. he will be in for a rough time at any weight class, but he's at a huge size and athleticism disadvantage at those weightclasses.
when people mistake your body composition figures for that of a serving of pork rinds, you have no business being in the fight game. just look -- both are over 30% fat by mass and a mere 7% protein. plus one serving of CM Punk is over 50% of your recommended daily intake

I think this whole thing is a façade but it will also be the first ppv I'll watch since Silva/Weidman 1
Soooo...mission accomplished, Dana White.

Lmao I would say just about anybody has more skill than Cody McKenzie

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
Now that he's been mentioned, CM Punk vs. Cody McKenzie would be a winnable fight for Mr. Brooks. I'm sure that McKenzie will fight as long as you pay for his flight and give him a free pair of shorts.
As opposed to those without tattoos, who have no sagging in their 60's.
Because he has no business getting singed by the UFC when he has had zero real fights. Anyone can get lucky in a fight, but expect CM Punk to get destroyed easily.
Someone like Brock Lesnar makes sense. He was an NCAA wrestling champ and he won a fight in MMA before getting signed to UFC.
CM Punk wouldn't even get past Cody.

Punk has a lot of what most low level fighters don't have....Money, I used to fight and trust me if he surrounded himself with high end trainers he will do fine until he hits mid card status.... (Of course this is if his chin isn't glass)
He's fighting some ham and egger, not the demon Kane.A preview of things to come
He doesn't have enough time. A year of training isn't going to do shit against people that have been training for years. He'll have to get lucky and hope he has knockout power and can catch someone.
Heavyweight champ Cain Velasquez looks like an average chubby Hispanic but is wrecking everyone up.
Physique =/= Fighting Ability. GSP only lifted weights for aesthetics/marketability, he's been quoted saying that.
Look at Cheick Kongo. Dude is built like a God but goes down with the slightest tap to the jaw.
In a world where the guy on the left beat the guy on the right, I don't think it's fair to judge a fighter just on his physique.
in hw it's better to have some flab as extra weight than be all muscle.

Yeah, Cody's not really a good guy to bring up when it comes to "skill," unless you're talking about a very specific kind of guillotine choke.

A year with high end black belt BJJ trainers is a lot of time. Punk isn't going to be standing with guys, not yet at least. It's going to be a hug fest until he finds an opening for hammer fist ground and pound or a sub.

I doubt even UFC has anyone fighting that is a bigger Jobber than Kane.

Lately? Josh Koscheck.
Isn't he a vegan? Too much soy.
Still, this isn't what I expected when I clicked on the thread. Dude doesn't look like he's in even halfway decent shape for a MMA fight. I'd be terrified if I were him.

I hope by some miracle or grace of god one of the Diaz brothers gets a fight with Punk, but you know, he's WAY too heavy for Punk. Punk can legit hit 145.
No it isn't. I've been training MMA since '96 and wrestled in school... he'll need more time -- I see how long it takes some that come into our gym. The best he can do is practice sub defense and learn to sprawl well so he's not taken down. He'll want to stand if he's to have a chance, since the ground game is the most difficult to master. He'll be put in submissions and he won't know what to do. A "hug fest" as you call it, will result in him being thrown to his back and fucked up.
Punk is fighting at 185 last I read.

Wow, I wonder where he's gonna make up that extra 30 or so pounds
He was weighing more than that at WWE. If those numbers are accurate.
Punk is 6'2" and will be fighting at 185. I can see it. Anderson is same height and looks like this at 185 after cutting weight.
