CM Punk is a name WWE fans are certainly familiar with.
Phil "CM Punk" Brooks is a name MMA fans are soon to become familiar with, as he is trying to make the transition from sports entertainment to a full-contact combat sport.
Well, Brooks joined Boomer and Craig Thursday morning to talk about his decision to leave the world of professional wrestling behind. And while doing so, he shared that his wife has great legs and he can bench about 250 pounds, among other things.
"I understand how they feel (about my contract with UFC)," Brooks said of his critics. "And they're probably a little bit justified in that. But if I based all my decisions in my life off of what somebody else thought of me on Twitter, I wouldn't be here right now. I don't want to, in 10 years, wake up one morning and constantly be that guy that says, 'What if? Man, I really wish I did this.' "
"I'm a little bit crazy, obviously," he added. "I don't know if people think that I think I'm absolutely sane for making this decision. That's not the case. This is just something that I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I didn't try."
