CM Punk to Haters: ‘SHUT UP’

The people who are mad or think this is an embarrassment to the UFC or the sport? I used to not be able to ride a bike. So when I was learning how to ride a bike, does Lance Armstrong come up to me and say: Who the f— are you, trying to learn how to ride a bike? My attitude is punk rock across the board: Oh, you don’t think I should do it? Well, I’m going to do it and I’m going to try to be the best I f—ing can. At the end of the day, it’s about me and not anyone else. But, yeah, I used to not be able to read or walk or ride a bike or drive a car. Those people who are down on me trying this? Shut the f— up and don’t watch the fight.

Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion and new UFC signee CM Punk tells haters what he thinks about them in this interview with Sports Illustrated. Fans are doubting Punk’s ability to get in the octagon, but he simply wants to prove to himself that he can do this.
