CM Punk attending UFC this weekend, possibly joining UFC?

CM Punk with Dana White

CM Punk will be present among the audience at this week’s UFC 181 event in Las Vegas as per reports from MMAJunkie.com. UFC President Dana White revealed this on The Jim Rome Show and said the two will talk about working something out in the UFC.

White said, “He left the WWE for whatever reason, he’s a huge fan of the UFC, he’s been training for a few years now, and he’s interested in fighting. I’m interested in talking to him. … CM Punk is coming to the show this weekend, and we’re going to talk.”

“You never know (if he can fight) until you get in there. I didn’t know if Brock could fight. I thought Brock was crazy for coming over here. But, the difference with Brock Lesnar is Brock was a world-class wrestler. I don’t know. We’ll see. He’s not a guy that we would do what we did with Brock; we threw Brock right to the wolves. Brock started fighting all the top heavyweights in the world because of his wrestling background. CM Punk, we would bring him in just like any regular fighter, and he would fight a guy with a similar record to his, which is 0-0.”
