Make no mistake, CM Punk is thrilled to finally have an official opponent for his first UFC fight. If nothing else, it means he can start game planning, and stopped being asked the question "so, who will you be fighting?" That's one less distraction, which can only be a good thing for Punk. He has already been showing signs of stress and fatigue in interviews, obviously tired of his motives - and this entire endeavor - being questioned. https://twitter.com/ufc/status/696135199965315072
