"I'll never say never"
When asked if he'll return to WWE: "NEVER EVER"
That's what I was thinking but I don't think he was serious it that interview, he even said "guys on twitter will go wild" or something like that.
@@sbigbears6413 I know lol just like to poke fun
He's working for Fox not wwe.
@@runnerover did this guy say he was working for wwe???
@Figueroa Rury Laquinta Definitely a better businessman than a fighter.
Only reason Punk "went the distance" is because Mike Jackson played along when he should've knocked him out round 1
FACT
Exactly. Mike wanted to clown Punk. He even slapped him in the face in 2nd round. There was no respect. It was like a cat playing with a wounded rodent.
yeah that was hard to watch........ battered his face
I still think Rogan was right about mike getting paid off to let that happen
Mike humiliated Punk because he looked down upon him
He talks like he actually has a chance of winning in ufc...
well any one has a chance ? but true cm punk was far out
+ when did he say he that ? tell me what point ?
True haha.
@@jamie7976 cm punk for that record has no chance of winning in the UFC, he is an amateur fighter who was a sports entertainer
@@hms9891 everyone has a chance of winning you melon it’s just a very low chance read the fucking comment
CM Punk: I always say Yes.
Also CM Punk: Never Ever!
@Loop Star Go buy your mom some food then.
Donald J. Trump your a funny geezer lol 😂
True, but he also said in another clip of the same interview that "this is not the old Phill" whatever that means so
He should have went to the Jack Swagger route and fought meat factory workers and weekend janitors. And walked around like he was the 💩 when he won.
Yakuza Ohtani now he is in AEW as an undefeated MMA fighter 😂
he's second opponent was a bum and he still lost
Chris Flores i thought he was in bellator
Weekend janitors 😂😂😂😂😂
You say that but even if punk fought nobody's he could never do what jack had done, he was absolute shit in that octagon... No fluidity, no striking, his grappling was literally trying to hold on for his life if you watch that fight...He's absolutely talentless in real fighting.
His second fight went the distance? Jackson toyed with him for 3 rounds like a cat would do with a mouse before it kills and then Dana White fires Jackson for not finishing him sooner. It’s not because you’re old dude. It’s because you don’t have any fighting skill
Being old does play a factor. He’s way past what would’ve been his prime. If he was younger and committed, he would’ve probably trained 10 times harder.
I mean look at what old age recently did to Tony Ferguson and Cowboy Cerrone.
Hey atleast it lasted for 3 rounds
Legit I don’t train but I know I could beat him up. Guy doesn’t have a clue about technique of punching or kicking and didn’t absorb anything it seems from his training camp. He’s just not got that in him.
@@jak3brap10 how do you know you could beat him if you don't train wouldn't that make you just as experienced as punk?
@@koltonusrey304 bro even amateurs can beat him
He’s clearly passionate about fighting and MMA which is super respectable. I agree though, if he fights again it shouldn’t be in the UFC. He could fight on CFFC, the show he announces for.
I mean shit Bellator would probably let him fight. Bellator would do anything for a check even if it means lack of great fighting quality (ex Kimbo Slice, Ken Shamrock)
He's not adept with combat sports. He spent 2-3 years training with Duke Roofus(coaches high level mma fighters) and didn't really do well. It's not the sport for him. He's no spring chicken either, which doesn't help.
He should have taken fights there before he tried he take any UFC fights.
@@kekoavelasquez4151 Ken shamrock was decent
Aston martin yeah but he was past his prime. He was 50 years old fighting and Kimbo Slice was not a good fighter. They had the name value that’s it
there is no way dana would give him one more chance , he is just not a good fighter AT ALL
No, but he’s Dana’s friend and is a big draw. Dana would let him fight again.
StepKickKing no lol
But he would be a big draw and at the end of the day most people value money over "doing the right thing", that's how you get to the top and Dana is no different.
He's not a draw
The last ppv he was on drew about 150 k
That's horrible
Dana would for sure put him on another card if he asked for a fight.. he wouldn't do him any favors with the matchmaking but I think Dana would for sure bring him in as a stepping stone for a potential prospect. Punk would never take a fight with those dynamics so it's kind of a moot point.
Please no. I don't want him to get killed again.
Pretty Sure They wouldn't let him
I really think if he comeback, it will be the biggest pops in wwe history
If he comes back the old them song should play. That would be sick!
@@mangekyotashi cm punk coming back would 200%
If cm punk comes back in Chicago will be the biggest pop
@@erictapia1772 He would be booe'd he's lost all respesct amongst the wrestling fans for selling out. He would have gotten a huge pop at AEW, now his return would be like Hogan coming back to WWE under the NWO....wasted
Ok.if he comes back ,vince is gonna sick his new moneymaker at him...
Fiend won't forget what you did to husky harris
Punk would never admit it, in fact he probably tricked his own brain to thinking otherwise, but the only reason he signed with UFC a few years back, is because his WWE contract told him that he couldn't. So as an FU to them (WWE), he signed with UFC.
Interesting thought. And i also think since he was a big fan of MMA so he wanted to try it and thought maybe he could do it.
Plus the millions of dollars offered
I doubt that because WWE would have threw the law at him. He is a bum and his fans create these stories about him.
i'm glad Punk failed in the UFC because it gave pro wrestlers and wrestling fans a taste of reality - just how difficult MMA is. your average UFC fighter will kill your average WWE wrestler.
@@fsmfsm9941 True, but at the same time that kind of goes both ways. In that any MMA fighter would or should annihilate a pro wrestler in a fight. But then most MMA fighters would probably tap out after two months on a WWE schedule and would most likely have very sloppy ring work. Not everyone, but like, 90%.
The Last Place on Earth he needs to go is the UFC
Hahaha 😂😂 lol
CM Punk exposed himself as being unathletic and lacking in skill during his 3 round fight against Mike Jackson.
Ishmael C that's why Dana Hates mike Jackson. Jackson expose Dana. Rest of the locker are mad Dana Paid punk so much and lack talent.
@CountryfiedLinux well Brock draws and people complain about him
Shoto well Brock is the former ufc champ...what is punk...0-2 lol
@@MrConnectionFilms Not full of steroids.
Huck findus
He has a passion for MMA and he's still competing in BJJ tournaments in Chicago. Still training at rofusport. Doesn't matter what age, or skill you are if you love do it and have fun. The UFC opponents he was given was a brown belt in bjj and had more MMA fights than he did. Hopefully he fights again but in the lower ranks. Rooting for CM Punk
he can fight at one of those mudshow mma events.
he was battered and abused by Mike Jackson 😂
Jackson sent him to the hospital.
Roxy "What do you mean" Striar
CM Punk has a tattoo that says "LUCK IS FOR LOSERS." CM Punk had a lucky UFC career.
Lucky he had no lasting injuries
That second fight didn’t go the distance it was obvious buddy was toying with him 🤣
Totally agreed. Nothing but respect fot Punk though.
@@faizan5456 Exactly. He had the balls to do it. Not to many are willing to even think about it. So props to him!
@@obersveyourmind Sorry but no. He didn't "have the balls to do it," Dana White paid him a shitload of money to do it. Lets call this what it is. Dana paid Punk to get beat up (twice) because he felt Punk would expose the UFC to a wider audience. Not to mention, Punk did the same thing to dedicated UFC fighters that he accused part-timers of doing in the WWE. So, he's also being hypocritical.
It lasted for 3 rounds tho
@@semyaza555 you living up to your name I see lol
I wouldn’t mind seeing Punk get whooped in UFC again ☺️🥰
Much respect. Didnt go great but he gave it a shot. He tried.
We all know that Fouseytube is the perfect match for CM Punk...
Fousytube would woop his ass
Nah his best opponent would be Glass Joe
its sad that he is still convinced that he can do something in mma
He can clean the jizz loads in the UFC Suana’s after the fighters cut weight
He needs to do one more fight. Go to a local show and win. Theres no reason he should be fighting world class guys
Bougie Joker the last guy he fought was far from world class. He can’t fight at all he only wins scripted matches.
@@ericpastrano9816 he fought a 4-0 boxer 1-0 kickboxer with twice his experience. Not necessarily world class but someone with twice his experience.
Mike Jackson ain't no world class fighter
Lmao
Lol Punk NEVER fought world class guys. And before you try to "but Mickey Gall", Mickey can't even beat a past his prime has-been *155-er* Diego Sanchez...in the 170 division.
Even the worst regional guy could mop Punk up bad.
No disrespect, but Mike Jackson is far from world class.
More than half of y’all saying he’s a terrible fighter probably have no background of any discipline. At least he got in the octagon... but of course everyone on the internet are experts...lol never surprises me
I’m curious, what do you guys think about streetfights or general brawls in comparison to mma fights
I'll watch a street fight between two random nobodies over professional fights any day of the week.
@@aaron_my_lungs what if they know how to fight it's two random people one could be a martial artists or mma fighter
Dana said he'd never let cm punk in the UFC again , u do know what that means right?
It’s so crazy starting as a fan of kristian and marks reviews like 8 years ago to today having these interviews with some of the greatest wrestlers ever. Major props to the schmoes and collider.
This guy blocked me on twitter because I told him I was not an immigrant to the United States.
Lol
I'm sorry, this clip lasted longer than his first fight in ufc 😂sorry to be that guy ha (I think he's a tidy guy)
You stop learning in MMA at around 35- that's the decline age (some fighters decline as late as 40). He should do BJJ and submission grappling tournaments so he doesn't get hurt
He would get destroyed,even to Bellator or One Fc he'll get destroyed!
Bellator could throw cans at him, look at the type of fighters Jack Swagger fights.
@@rorisang8602 Mike Jackson was a can.
Considering they literally have frank mir and the last emperor yeah. That's still basically ufc level
I still don't understand with his haters.
If he wants to fight and get his ass kicked, why don't you guys let him do it? He sucks, he was bad at fighting, ok. I get it.
But then again you guys don't wanna see him get smashed and beaten up. Come onnn people. Get your mind right for once. 😂
He didn't deserved to be in UFC
CM punk fighting in the UFC show how unathletic and unreal the WWE is
Brock Lesnar begs to differ.
@@KingdomFarts_ lesnar had several looses also, against velazquez and daniel cormier
@@babalarassrah but Lesnar is a UFC Heavyweight Champion, with several unifications and defenses. How many champs have there been? Lesnar is one of those few.
Mate good for him do what you want and get paid, can't ask for more. The guy has nothing left to prove.
Big fan of him.
He tried and failed but is still a great humble guy.
I stopped watching wrestling a long time ago but I keep following that guy.
Great Guy.
It's Clobbering Time!!!!
Next up - "CM Punk talks about whether he'll fight ever again"
"CM Punk talks about his experience in UFC"
"CM Punk talks about Japanese Pro Wrestling"
...
It's all so predictable.
Cause those are obvious questions that have not been answered by him. What the hell else would you ask him!?
You can’t return CM. You are to powerful for them your wrestling, boxing, kickboxing, jujitsu is just on a another level
He doesnt belong in the ufc, fighters who spend their life crafting their game belong in the ufc, not him
He literally just said that
Cm punk needs to fight in does mma underground to gain more experience!!! And then fight again in the UFC!!! Like my comment if u wanna see Cm Punk back in the octagon!!
His ufc stints were embarrassing, getting paid half a million dollars for a quick loss isn’t a good look
He actually got $1Million per fight.
Now that you mentioned it, it makes Punk an absolute brilliant businessman & the UFC an even more POS company.
The reason why I say that is because Punk got 2 Million total from the UFC with zero martial arts experience & fighting as a novice in the company.
He got in because of his name value. Others fighters have been fighting for years & aren't even/haven't been close to making that kind of money. Punk made that in money in two fights.
Yeah, he got his ass whipped in the octogon, but at least he got paid big money to get his ass whipped.
Nate Diaz was absolutely right when he said the CM Punk signing made the sport look bad.
The UFC roster is loaded with talented fighters & for them to sign an ex pro wrestler with no martial arts/mma background, no fights, etc is a huge, huge slap in the face to those talented fighters that bust their ass to hone their craft & be great.
Nothing against Punk though, seems like a really nice guy, it's just the UFC was a really bad fit for him. Maybe he should try competing for Bellator or King of the Cage.
Shit... There's guys out here getting their ass beat, for FREE..
I respect him for giving it a shot. He failed and he accepts it. If he wants a third fight, it's up to him. In my opinion he should've started fighting in small mma promotions as soon as he left wwe. He'll probably come back to wrestling since that's what he's good at
Idk why punk just starts as amateur mma so he could get some experience build his fighting knowledge
Yea Man I really think I could win the title smh if they let me win
UFC wont have him back.
I think one more fight in UFC.. Come back punk one more fight.
For the title!
For *Wrestlemania!*
Mans got his ufc career ruined by a dude named Micheal Jackson
LOL thats a fancy way of saying "Dana white doesn't want me in UFC because i am an embarrassment"
If I were Punk and started in my late 30's, I would pick a combat sport where the level of competition is not crazy high like maybe muay thai, fencing, kendo or something like that and aim for national level success. He would never be offered that kind of visibility and prestige in amateur sports for training for a couple years but then again professional sports are about money and it's a bit different, which is why he was allowed in the UFC. Would he be called upon to compete in olympic boxing representing the USA for dabbling in boxing? Obviously not. It would be beyond ridiculous. All things considered, since he is already established in MMA having got a good start in it and his best years are fading fast it's probably the best to continue MMA and fight some low level matches.
Agree apart from muay thai, someome like punk would get seriously hurt doing muay thai..
He doesn't have the guts to fight , he got totally destroyed and humiliated and Dana fired him and got rid of him , I hope we see him in UFC again so he would get whipped again.
I think most women in the ufc beats Cm punk
1. Anderson silva
2. Jon jones
3. CM punk
This guy is a good guy and unable to hurt someone, that's why he's been so inconsistent in ufc
Naaah gtfo he just sucked as a fighter.
CM Punk can always fight in Combate Americas or One Championship.
What I love about cm punk is he is spontaneous in the sence that he wants to do everything and he'll never back down
I mean I think anyone would step in the octagon if they was going to make a shit ton of money
Cm punk is type of guy who shit out themselves, like a guy who has a job and leaves job thinking he can earn much more and needs quick promotions but after he leaves his job he can't do anything useful with life. That was so stupid to leave WWE when they paid you for scripted fight.
Starting at a ufc level was too much. Those are young and hungry guys trying to climb up.
dude was in the wrong weight class, he needs to move up to 185 and clean up the division
Punk v francis the predator at a catch weight lol
@@BoerboelBladeandAriaTV RIP Punk
Please return to the WWE Punk because I want the former WWE champion to wrestle in the WWE again
Please returning to the WWE CM Punk and I don't want Punk to retire from wrestling
I don’t think UFC will want him to come back
You didn't think he'd get a 2nd fight either
He never stood a chance trying to start at the top!
I always got the feeling that Punk got a big head while guys twice his size like Ryback and Brock sold for his little judo kicks in WWE. So he convinced himself that he could beat up guys in the Octogon LOL
Judo kicks?
I don't think you know what judo is mate.
Not downgrading women at all in the ufc. Was going to say that his only shot at winning something in the ufc is in their division. Then again he would get his ass whooped by them too
Alberto del Rio is a Legit MMA fighter , they should fight CM punk vs Alberto del Rio MMA
Punk is around 40 and he thinks he have still Chance in freaking ufc
God...
i think cm punk should fight khabib
Say never. Punk Stop. Great entertainer...no fighting!
CM PUNK IS THE BEST IN MY BOOK 4EVER ✊💪💪💪🤙🤘😃
Peace,
canlifedrinks 😎
Your name is Kyle and you drink monster.
He can come back to mma all he wants, but it can’t be the ufc. Maybe he should fight in bellator or rizin. They will give him fighters his level.
Well he was much older for UFC. Crazy. Never know if he had started as a young man in mma things may have turned out different. He tried.
You can tell the guy interviewing has no idea what he’s talking about and just looked on Wikipedia before talking. Otherwise he wouldn’t have mentioned Punk ‘going the distance’ in his second fight
Dana wouldn’t give him another fight! Not even in the prelims
He should fight Floyd in a celebrity UFC fight
I didn't know he was out of UFC
lmao we have a better chance at seeing punk join wwe, win the championship, and get inducted into the hall of fame before we ever see him get his ass beat in ufc ever again
Please God don’t
CM PUNK VS RHONDA WOULD BE GOOD!
Idk why he’s so into the idea of going back to the UFC if he already has a bad reputation there and other than the wwe crowd. The UFC crowd hates him and clowns him
CM Punk 👑
He can only win in the KFC parking lot
Those weren't fights they were clinics on how not to be a fighter hey CM wake up dude
Nothing against what cm punk has done in his career,and never take away the respect because he had the balls to fight in the ufc. But he don't deserve another shot, not in ufc at least, but at least a amateur mma fight or something.
Its literally not up to him Dana White would never hire him again.
CM Punk vs Brock make it happen Vinnie
Like he has a say
I never liked him as a wrestler and he sucked in the octagon but he did try
humble guy. great courage.accepting the truth
Dana white does not want You
Nah I just want him to stick to wrestling.. wrestling is More entertaining and fits him better I know he lost in UFC but even if he had won he has mike skills and is very charismatic ..his place is in wrestling
no offense but wrestling is dead
What kind of stupid question is that?!?! Dana won't allow him to fight again with a losing record!
Becoming an MMA fighter is not something you start at 37 years old like CM punk did. Unless you have a background in some type of combat discipline....maybe college or olympic wrestling, boxing, jujitsu, etc...unless you already have an established background in one of those disciplines there is ABSOLUTELY no way you will be succesful in an MMA career if you started at 37 with no combat sports experience
You cant judge cm punk, but he deffo shoulda started from amateur level and worked his way up
Say yes to everything it’s like telling a forklift driver to drive a crane 🏗.. cm dude stop 🛑
He should join bellator and fight cans
mcgregor vs punk...that’s the fight to make
I thought this was a joke, lol.
There’s absolutely no way. He would lose a fight to fifty percent of the people walking the streets. Wrestling fans must me incredibly gullible.
Ummm if he asked Dana for a 3rd fight I highly doubt Dana would give it to him. Like just take the L punk you don’t need to save face.
I Love Punk but this is the last thing he should go back to. It was a bucket list item, and a VERY profitable one at that..but don’t go BACK!
I mean You got your shot and you get full credit for stepping in there but if I got a shot to play in the MLB and got up 20 times and struck out 19 I think I’d call it a day. I realize it’s not a fair analogy but I’m bored at work and You get My point.
But absOLUTELY I’d LOVE to hear the double static on the WWE loudspeakers again!
Best In The World.
at getting punched in the face
FSM FSM must be fun at parties
Cm punk should not go back to MMA because MMA is not for him he tried I give him that most guys in wwe roster wouldn't dare to step into octagon but seriously MMA is a different sport full contact fight without script
