CM Punk’s UFC Debut Delayed By Shoulder Injury

“CM Punk’s” (pictured) much-anticipated MMA debut has hit a bit of a snag. On Monday, ESPN.com confirmed the former WWE wrestler has suffered a shoulder injury that will delay his UFC premiere by at least one month.

“He got caught in a scramble, so right now he’s taking a little time off,” coach Duke Roufus stated. “He was doing great before that. His progress has been good. He’s got a great attitude and he’s a hard worker. He got a place in Milwaukee where he lives all week when he’s here training, so he’s in it to win it.
