Most fight fans are aware that Nelson and Kingo Mo train together. And most are aware that Mo has tried his hand at Pro Wrestling in TNA, alongside his run in Bellator. It was actually a huge deal when Mo signed with both promotions. So who better for a wrestler-come-MMA fighter to train with in preparation for his transition than Mo, who did the same thing in reverse, to an extent? Lawal has a fantastic wrestling pedigree, and that's something Punk is going to need to pick up in order to find success in the octagon. Where will Punk end up full time? It remains to be seen - but he has trained with some decent names thus far.
