Daniel Cormier and Kenny Florian doubtful over CM Punk's future in UFC

Daniel Cormier and Kenny Florian express their concerns over CM Punk's future in the UFC.

It's been over a year since former WWE sensation CM Punk - or Phil Brooks - signed with the UFC. Lorenzo Fertitta assured fans in January that Punk would fight a "competitive guy" in his debut. However, 37-year-old Brooks is still without an opponent and an official date for his Octagon entrance.

Punk, who trains out of Milwaukee at Roufusport, was expected to compete in 2015 but suffered a shoulder injury in October. Earlier this month, Dana White confirmed that Brooks would "100 percent" make his debut next year and revealed that his opponent would be selected from the new 'Looking for a Fight' show.
