Bobby Lashley On Wishing CM Punk Had One MMA Fight Before Joining UFC, Hoping Punk Does Well

- Bellator MMA and TNA star Bobby Lashley recently commented on CM Punk fighting with UFC at a Bellator Media Day event in Hollywood. Courtesy of MMAFighting.com, below are some quotes from Lashley:

"I wish he can have a fight before going in there. I wish they could send him out to some jungle somewhere and put him in a cage and fight a nobody and see what he does."

"Everybody has to have their go-to. I don't know what his go-to is gonna be. If the water is getting deep for me, I'm gonna take somebody down. For him, you can't just rely on your hands because there's so many people out there that are just phenomenal with their hands. I really don't know where he's gonna go. That's a tough one."

"I hope he does well.. I know he's at a good camp and I know the guys are saying he's training his ass off. That's a hard situation, because what do you do? You've got a guy that's 0-0. Are you gonna bring somebody else that's 0-0 into the UFC and give him that berth or are you gonna give him someone that's more experienced? I hope he does well and it's not even for the [pro] wrestling aspect. He's going out there fighting and sticking his neck on the line, so I hope he does well."
