CM Punk has signed with the UFC

Straight from Dana Whites Twitter. I'm very shocked of this news and wish him well.

Re: CM Punk has signed with the UFC

Will he be fighting in the "skinny fatass" division?

Re: CM Punk has signed with the UFC

Seriously? Why? I get that he's competitive, but why risk serious injury at this point when you could probably make good money just talking for a living. Just to stick it to Vince?

Because like Lesnar he's been given a chance to do something that he's always loved but never had the opportunity to do. If I'm 35 years old and get a phone call from a team in the NFL, I'm going. Why? Because it's something that I've always loved and wanted to do.

Oh, I guess coming in and taking precedent over guys who have been there when you have name value and will bring more eyes is fine in this case...?

Re: CM Punk has signed with the UFC

Real question. Were PPV buys higher when Lesnar was on the card?

Wow I didn't see that coming. I give him props for taking the chance of stepping into the cage. I just hope he doesn't get seriously hurt.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think three of the top five highest-selling UFC PPVs were headlined by a Lesnar fight.
