CM Punk appeared at the UFC 181 post-show and confirmed that his WWE deal was settled on October 22nd and that his deal with UFC had been in the works for awhile.
It was also confirmed that Punk was supposed to be UFC’s major announcement at the “The Time Is Now” press conference last month, but UFC ended up holding off on it due to Punk’s deal not being finalized yet.
Punk also said he is staying “the fuck off Twitter for now” to avoid negativity, but that by the end of his UFC run, everyone will respect him.
