Former WWE Champion and prospective UFC fighter CM Punk has been out of action for the past few weeks due to a shoulder injury, reported his coach Duke Roufus in an article today on ESPN.com. Punk injured the shoulder a few weeks ago, and is scheduled for an a diagnosis on October 14th.

"He got caught in a scramble, so right now he's taking a little time off," Roufus said. "He was doing great before that. His progress has been good. He's got a great attitude and he's a hard worker."

Roufus said they don't want him back training until fully healed. Since there is no date for a first fight, there is no rush to get him back. He estimated it would be six to ten months before he feels Punk would be ready to debut. He thought it would make the most sense for his debut to be at UFC 200 on July 9, 2016, in Las Vegas, NV.

I bet when he debuts it'll be a big let down after all the anticipation

^Not a bet I'd go against.

well of course be hurt, after all 20 years worth of his life is gone right? being 56 and trying to get into the ufc without getting hurt is hard.
