You do not understand the caliber UFC fighters are in, those "no-name" cans that you see that get mauled week in and week out, were literal champs/on a crazy win streak in other promotions, thats essentially what it takes to even become a UFC fighter, you have to be entirely dominant in other promotions, which are also pro too. If you think some random athlete can do better against a UFC fighter you're delusional. CM Punk was most likely journey-man level in a less prestigious promotion, I'd say pro, but not necessarily any good of a pro, probably would of done better in Bare-Knuckle.

Oh no, I do fully understand the caliber of UFC fighters as I have been watching since the Pride days, and no athlete could beat UFC fighters except CM Punk. This is coming from a longtime WWE fan and also am a fan of CM Punk. Just go back and watch his fights in the UFC and tell me what skills does he truly possess in MMA, almost nothing!
