Upon the announcement of his signing to the UFC in 2014, what was not clear for a while was the team and training camp that Punk would be part in, once he began preparing for his debut. He eventually made the right decision by joining the renowned Roufusport Academy.

The Milwaukee-based facility is headed by multi-time kickboxing champion Duke Roufus, where other elite fighters train, such as former UFC lightweight champion Anthony Pettis, undefeated welterweight Ben Askren, and current welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, among others. These three names alone are already more than enough to give Punk some quality training.

However, order to further develop and progress, he must have nothing else on his agenda but to train and improve himself as much as he can. He already has the age disadvantage against Jackson, who is in his prime at 32 years of age, and he cannot afford to slack off and put himself at risk for another loss.
