CM Punk is a household name in the world of professional wrestling. But what about mixed martial arts?

Phil Brooks made his UFC debut in 2016, and many people were curious to see how he would fare in the octagon. In this article, we will take a look at CM Punk’s UFC record and see how he did in his first two fights.

CM Punk’s UFC debut was against Mickey Gall on September 24th, 2016. CM Punk lost the fight by submission in the first round. This was a major disappointment for Punk and his fans.

CM Punk’s second UFC fight was against Mike Jackson on June 0th, 2018. Punk lost the fight by unanimous decision, however, the fight was later overturned to a no contest.

CM Punk did not have a great showing in this fight and was booed by the crowd. Punk retired from MMA after this fight. The Second City Saint’s UFC record is 0-1 with one no contest, which isn’t very impressive at all to say the least.

CM Punk UFC Record

Punk is known for being a professional wrestler who became famous because of his ability to talk trash about other wrestlers. Unfortunately, CM Punk is not a very good fighter, and his UFC record reflects that.

CM Punk is not a professional fighter and should stick to what he does best. Punk made the transition from wrestling to MMA, but his UFC record shows that, really, Brooks should have never tried fighting in the octagon.

However, a huge amount of credit should be given to the straight edge fighter. Punk took the chance and had the scruples to enter the octagon in the first place, it just didn’t work out.
