Punk may not have paid his dues in the world of mixed martial arts, but he is trying to get up to par with the men and women at Duke Rufus&#8217; elite camp. Punk is striking with the likes of Anthony Pettis and rolling with experts like Ben Askren.<\/p>\n<p>The more and more fighters and fans get to see who Punk truly is, it&#8217;s getting more difficult for them to hate on him. &#8220;I was looking for a reason not to like him just because all of the hype that&#8217;s behind him. He basically gets a free ride, but he&#8217;s cool man. He&#8217;s a cool dude. Anybody put in his situation would definlitely take that opportunity. Why wouldn&#8217;t you? He gets to do&#8212; just basically fast forwards through everything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Want to catch up on the rest of the last episode of Stud Show Radio? <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/11watch-tonights-stud-show-radio-ep-85-live-at-8pmish-pt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK HERE<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><strong>UFC Fighters Give Us Their Favorite BJ Penn Moment!
