https://twitter.com/ufc/status/1004785310553788416?s=12Can someone assess what they are seeing here?Is this impressive? Is it amateur.Just write down what you think of this clip.It’s the only fighting clip I have of punk since the last fight and I want everyone’s thoughts (even though it isn’t much).
I am 2-0 (1 sub; 1 decision) amateur featherweight in Wisconsin - training for a few years - take that for what it's worth.
These are obviously very basic combinations, and it looks like he's at the tail end of a session, throwing only power to blow out his muscles, but he does absolutely nothing to hide his chin, and he looks very slooooowwww. Those uppercuts look like they're straight out of Cal Pendred's playbook. Eek.

Hard to fully evaluate since this is definitely towards the end of his training session. (I hope lol)
It doesn't look good at all tho, I dont know why he would even post that tbh. Maybe its to catch him off guard? His hands are slow his footwork is in cement, his form looks forced which shows he is still an amateur. Not good.

Pod at a bare minimum Jackson is a boxer kickboxer for 10 years. He knows how to move around the octagon and throw a punch.
Punk hasn’t shown any of that...not in his last fight posted above...not in this video....ever! I was looking for some morsel of evidence this guy can do anything in the UFC and I have yet to find ONE person who does! Not one!

This was 100% dog or nothing. Insane to bet Jackson at that price.
any insight why punk should win "easily?"
jackson at least has some combat fighting experience and has been training 10+ years.
punk, on the other hand, made a living off throwing fake punches for 20 years of his life.
i'm tempted to put money on Jackson KO/TKO, but I have read about the possibility of a fix. I mean, why wouldn't a 33 year old 0-1 journalist (Jackson) take a fall for some money? he's gotta know he doesn't have much of a future in mma...whereas a CM Punk win could build for a future fight.. he does have some fans.
