All State Baseball Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 CM Punk says that former UFC Heavyweight Champion (and reigning WWE World Heavyweight Champion) Brock Lesnarrecently offered to help train him for his UFC debut. During an interview with Wisconsin News TMJ4, Punk spoke about Lesnar’s willingness to help him train. “I’ve talked to [brock Lesnar] and he’s offered all his help, even if it’s just bug him with a stupid question. It’s cool to know he supports me. He’s a good guy to know, I think… I think MMA is pro wrestling. If you go back to the early 1900’s and the whole genesis of professional wrestling, and then you go back to the early beginnings of MMA, it was all pro wrestlers… The characters, the action, the media, the mouths. There’s a reason people are interested in this, whether it’s good or it’s bad, whether they love me or they hate me.

born2reign Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I am thinking that is way too old to get started in UFC. How old was Randy Couture when he started- nearly 34, I believe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theguru Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 How old was Randy Couture when he started- nearly 34, I believe? I agree there are normally exceptions to the rule and I have no idea on Couture. I find MMA a little interesting but it is too brutal for me, I just don't enjoy watching humans hurt each other like that. And I especially don't think it is for people nearly 40 years old.
