Not even 24 hours after announcing that he will compete in the UFC Octagon, former WWE Superstar CM Punk has walked away from the deal, insisting that ?it just wasn?t fun anymore.?

Punk appeared on an episode of Colt Cabana?s ?Art of Wrestling? podcast today to break his hours-long silence about why he quit mixed martial arts, citing a list of grievances including mismanagement, unaddressed health problems, and the absence of UFC ice cream bars.

?Being in UFC was awesome for the first few hours, but after that I just kept adding notches to my frustration badge,? he said, using a peculiar metaphor invented by Cabana during a previous conversation.

Punk explained that, since joining UFC yesterday, he has constantly sacrificed his health and happiness for the company without proper acknowledgement from boss Dana White, so this morning he abruptly returned to the Chicago house that wrestling fans bought for him.

?I?m already so much happier,? he said. ?I honestly haven?t been this happy in, like, hours.?

Although Punk has every right to choose whatever career path he desires, and owes nobody anything, thousands of irate, semiliterate UFC fans are already calling him a ?quieter.?

Punk is reportedly considering several new career options, including pro hockey, the US Presidency, and chief lyricist for the Wu Tang Clan.

Sadly that freedom of speech lets trolls run wild  :rolleyes:

 

Most of your posts are anti-punk/pro-vince with a clear intent of baiting people. It's beyond obvious what you're doing. You defend Vince like it's personal. You know the guy or just wish that you did?

 

Everyone can have an opinion, just don't be a jerk about it and act as if only yours counts.

Most of my posts?! Oh, please do show me, it will be an interesting read.

And to me, you're the one acting like a jerk, because I never said "you're stupid, Vince is right and you're wrong" to anyone. All I said is that people are so quick to jump to conclusions based on some tweets this punk character posts and that they automatically bash WWE because, well, it's a business, not an individual. As long as you don't have access to punk's contract or whatever, I have the same right to post my opinion on punk as you have to post yours on WWE/Vince.

Oh cry me a river. It's as clear as that wwe mistreats their wwe. A good example was Benoit and Kurt angle. So similar stories from different wrestlers. Anyway a lot of the wrestlers praised Punk for coming clean and telling it as it is. However we know they can't say anything because that would be career suicide. And man up seriously. Calling people a jerk lol.. Like wow

Dude, it's called freedom of speech

 

Says someone from Romania.  On a privately owned website.  Hosted in another country...

Every time someone quotes "freedom of speech" out of context, Bono get's a clone.  Is that what you want?  A world full of Bono?

You need glasses dude, look above my post and see who called who a jerk.

What does the country have to do with anything? And while this is a private website, they DO have moderators that can say if someone's post is outside the rules. Posting an opinion (you need a definition of this?) that doesn't agree with other people's opinions, while NOT offending anyone (like I said, I never stated that you are idiots for you opinions and I'm the allmigthy) doesn't go outside the rules. If I'm wrong, I would like to ask a moderator to delete my posts.

 

I'm not obligated to like that punk character, or to agree with what he says/does, so I can say absolutely anything I want about him. By your judgement, I can say that those who call Vince an ###### are trolls and idiots, right?

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
