#5 Punk shocks the world

CM Punk winning in any way, shape or form is probably going to shock some people, but we want to be a little bit more specific with this entry. From what we’ve seen of his training footage combined with how he performed against Mickey Gall, it would seem as if he doesn’t have all too much power. On top of that, we haven’t really been able to see what he’s capable of from a submission point of view.

So then, wouldn’t it be mind-blowing if he winds up getting either a TKO, KO or submission victory over Jackson? It’s not completely outside the realms of possibility, and we can just imagine how unbelievable the pop would be. Jackson would probably have to underestimate him quite badly in a similar fashion to Weidman/Silva and Rockhold/Bisping, but hey, anything is possible.
