Thoughts after watching this?
Punk didn't take his Alpha Brain and Bulletproof Coffee.

Rogan doesn't believe Punk was even close to Gall's level and doesn't agree with the fact that he made his MMA debut under the UFC banner.
"What [Punk] did was great, it was courageous," Rogan said during the UFC 203 pay-per-view broadcast. "But it was delusional. That's my feeling. My feeling when I was watching him hit the bag, when I was watching him train, and when I was watching him hit things. It's not like he can't ever learn, but there's a journey as a martial artist, and there's a path that each martial artist [is] on. And different people are on different paths. There's a reason brown belts don't compete with white belts in jiu-jitsu tournaments. It's because it's not fair. And what we saw tonight is not fair.
"Mickey Gall's way better. He's really good. I watched that kid roll, I watched him take the back when he fought Mike Jackson -- he's really good. And I just think that this is what happens when you take a guy who's an elite young kid and you have him fight someone's who a celebrity and wants to challenge himself. It's not the way to do it."
Rogan hopes to see Punk gather up some amateur experience before even thinking about stepping inside the Octagon again.
"If I had to give CM Punk some advice -- I hate to harp on this -- I'd say fight as an amateur," he said. "Fight people at your level. He wants to do this, he wants to challenge himself, he wants to continue -- God bless him. He's a fun guy. I like him. But this is not the way to do it."
Ahahaha cucklord Phil absolutely BTFO
What he basically said was "Fuck off, whoever booked this freak fight bullshit"

lol trying to shift the blame onto Punk as if he scammed his way into a pro fight instead of what it was: Dana White giving the fans a carny gimmick freakshow, nice try
This was a squash match. The UFC signed a celebrity amateur against a legit opponent to boost ratings.
