In an interview with AXS TV’s Inside MMA, Bobby Lashley was asked what advice he would have for CM Punk before his first pro MMA fight in the UFC.
He said: “I’d tell him to not let anybody put him into something he’s not ready for. He’s going into it 0-0, so I have no idea what they’re going to do it with him. A lot of people who made it into the UFC had to fight and claw, so they’re going to have to bring in somebody else who’s 0-0. I do like CM Punk. He doesn’t fit the bill of a WWE guy. He’s not Brock Lesnar, The Rock, a big guy. He overcame the odds to become one of the best wrestlers in history. Punk likes to overcome odds, and he likes to overcome odds. He’s a hard worker.”
He wished him the best and praised his decision to train at Roufusport in Milwaukee.
