Everyone in the professional fighting and wrestling world has an opinion on former WWE Champion CM Punk signing with the UFC. Some thoughts are positive and others hate the idea of a wrestler joining the sport. One of the guys who especially does not like the idea is former fighter Don Frye. Frye thinks Punk will be spoon-fed easy fights.

The man with a 20-9-1-1 record voiced his Punk opinion to the Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling podcast.

"They are going to feed him fish. They are going to hand-pick an opponent for him so perfect that it will have all of the authenticity of a reality TV show," Frye said. "I think this sh*t cheapens the sport. Back when I did it, it was a fight and then it was a sport, now it's becoming sports entertainment. This cheapens everything that people who came before him did for twenty years."

This isn't the first time Frye has spout off about a WWE wrestler with ties to the UFC. Back in December Frye called Brock Lesnar a big blonde fairy. Frye also said of leaner that the "common sense fairy" tapped him on the shoulder and called him a "dumbass."

Frye made these comments on Submission Radio:

"What's his name? [Brock Lesnar] Yeah Lesnar," Frye said. "Yeah, he found out real fast. He was supposed to be god's answer to Satan, or Satan's answer to Christ, and he found out real fast that's not the place to be. He got hit, and man it changed his- he wanted to back, go to work in McDonalds."

Do you think Don Frye has a point about WWE wrestlers who become UFC fighters?
