The CM Punk promotional hype train keeps right on rolling, even with the struggles team Roufusport encountered at UFC 185, where Anthony Pettis lost his lightweight title, and younger brother Sergio Pettis was knocked out in his return to the flyweight division. Punk was on hand for the event, and doing the media rounds leading up to it. The most in-depth info came from a Q&A session with FOX Sports (not so coincidentally the home of the UFC) published late yesterday. While it attempts to avoid dwelling too much on his time with the WWE, it seems it was pretty hard to avoid. Other topics, however, include his Thor comic book, his first sparring session (which took place earlier this month), the support he has received (or conversely, hasn't received), and his daily life - right down to what he's watching at the moment. And no, what he's watching does not include the WWE. It does include the Walking Dead (obviously), and Better Call Saul, so clearly Punk is an AMC guy. Maybe a cameo on one of those in the future? That could be cool. It's a fairly long Q&A, so here's some of the highlights - mainly, eight things we learned from CM Punk's latest in-depth interview.
