Many fighters in the MMA community have questioned Ben Askren’s stand-up heading into Saturday night’s boxing match with YouTuber turned Boxer Jake Paul. It appears that CM Punk is not one of them.
During a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Punk endorsed his Roufusport teammate heading into the highly-anticipated fight in Atlanta.
“It’s easy to sit on your couch and say that Ben isn’t a striker,” Punk said. “He’s competed at a very high level in two different sports, and mindset is a big thing. Ben is going to approach it to the best of his natural ability to win the fight.”
Askren and Paul are all set to compete in a Boxing main event on Saturday night hosted by Triller Fight Club. Askren is making his professional boxing debut, while Paul is undefeated with a 2-0 record over retired basketball player Nate Robinson and fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib.
While Askren has never been known to be an accomplished striker, he has competed with some of the most feared men in the business. He has wins during his time in Bellator over Douglas Lima and Andrey Koreshkov, and beat UFC veteran Robbie Lawler by submission after surviving an early ground-and-pound barrage.
Punk’s recent endorsement of Askren is in the minority, as many in the MMA community; including Jorge Masvidal and Mike Perry, have questioned Askren’s chances in a boxing ring. Askren has worked with legendary boxing trainer Freddie Roach leading up to the fight with Paul.
“I know a lot of people are counting him out, but no one should be surprised if he wins.” Punk said.
It was also reported that both fighters will make a minimum of $500,000 for their end of the fight purse. There’s quite a bit of bad blood between the two, especially after Paul recently made controversial remarks that he is already showing signs of CTE, comments in which he quickly retracted.
All eyes will be on Atlanta on Saturday night as Paul and Askren collide in one of the most anticipated boxing matches in recent years.

CM Punk was a fan of Ronda Rousey’s controversial comments. Rousey made headlines recently when she not only slammed WWE’s “ungrateful” fans, but also labeled pro wrestling as “fake fights for fun.” Those comments received plenty of backlash especially from many within the industry with “Rowdy” later doubling down on her comments.

CM Punk was a fan of Ronda Rousey’s controversial comments.
Rousey made headlines recently when she not only slammed WWE’s “ungrateful” fans, but also labeled pro wrestling as “fake fights for fun.” Those comments received plenty of backlash especially from many within the industry with “Rowdy” later doubling down on her comments.
Many were interested to hear what Punk had to say about them as like Rousey, he too, has experienced both the world of pro wrestling and real fighting.
The former WWE champion is certainly enjoying the whole situation but did note where Rousey could be in a trouble with her statements.
“She [Rousey]’s doing her job. I love this,” Punk said on WWE Backstage (via Cageside Seats). “This is pure chaos and I don’t see this ending well, whether it’s real or scripted, but it’s going to be fun to watch. It’s fantastic to watch everyone bite on it and get butthurt. Everyone says ‘Ronda is soft’ because she got knocked out twice. ‘She’s not a real fighter. She’s not a real wrestler.’ She’s got them wrapped around her finger. Wrestling is best when you blur the lines. ‘These two really don’t like each other. She just punched her in the face.’
“Where I think she’s going to get in trouble is when she says ‘I’m real, everything else is phony,’ you’re not on thin ice anymore, you’ve fallen through the ice and you’re in the water. It’s going to be interesting to see how they tiptoe around that.”
Rousey has not competed in the WWE since last year and doesn’t appear to be heading back anytime soon. If she continues with her recent comments, it doesn’t look like Vince McMahon and company will want her back either at this rate.
