When CM Punk signed with the UFC and declared he was going to take a moment to figure out where he would start learning the skills required to step into the Octagon, many within the industry expected the high profile neophyte to land at one of the larger camps.

Instead, he drove up Highway 94 from his home in Chicago to Roufusport in Milwaukee.
