    Medeiros looked great at 170, gotta stop picking against these guys moving up in weight.

    I hope Punk knocks him out, so all the haters will shut up saying he shouldn't be in the UFC.

    Yes, people hate on him because he was in the wwe. He has lots of skills and I'm hoping he can prove all of them wrong.

    Yea Im sure he does in the WWE world, but ppl aren't just gonna fall over dead when he fake kicks them and s---.

    I'm really not a hater of his, but i may become one tonight if we get more posts like this one.

    He's been training for a long time and with a good team so hopefully he has skills but we haven't seen how he does in an actual fight yet.

    It's really almost a must win situation for both Punk and Mickey tonight.

    Might as well watch the 2 matches after it since I don't see either lasting too long
    It's a must win for both but who ever wins is kinda f----- either way. No way either are even remotely prepared to fight with somebody who actually belongs on that level.

    the reason punk gets hate is because he hasn't earned a spot on the ufc card
    dudes got to pay dues to get in that spot and he just has to express interest in going there and he gets the deal because he's a celebrity.
    it's not like lesnar who was an accomplished legit wrestler and a freak athlete, lesnar paid his dues and trained hard. not saying punk isn't training hard but it's not comparable to lesnar and people being upset that he got gifted his shot is completely justifiable imo. im not mad about it though because i rly want to see it.

    Good start





    Shouldn't you also wait to see him fight before proclaiming he has lots of skills though?

    i cant see punk taking another fight either way, i rly think this is gonna be a 1 and done for him, he's too old and banged up. it makes more sense for gall to win, even if punk loses he still gets some sort of moral victory for going out there at almost 40 and putting it all out there, even if he comes up short there's almost no shame. if mickey loses tonight his career is over lol

    In the UFC yea, Regional Promotions will line up to have him on their cards though just based on his name alone. At the end of the day if you're an MMA fighter you want to make your living in the UFC, but their are other promotions that pay pretty well that he could end up in and being labeled an "Ex-UFC fighter" goes a long way.
