CM Punk On If He Will Be Suing WWE Doctor To Recover Legal Fees

CM Punk spoke to MMAFighting.com ahead of UFC 225 this Saturday in Chicago. Punk, who will be facing fellow 0-1 fighter Mike Jackson on the main card of the event, discussed a jury ruling in his favor this week in his trial against WWE Senior Ringside Physician Dr. Chris Amann. Amann was suing Punk and Colt Cabana for libel and slander for comments Punk made on Cabana's podcast in 2014.

Punk said that when the verdict was read, it was one of three times that he lost control of his emotions.

Punk noted that while he doesn't have to pay anything, he spent a lot of money in legal fees for his defense. He said that to recover those fees, he would have to file his own lawsuit. Punk noted that he doesn't think he'll do that.

"I don't think it's my style. I don't know know what I'm going to do. This whole experience has taught me a lot... I'm on the fence. Money is just paper, but that was my life's work. I do think it was intentionally done to bleed me of money. It's over, and there's a big part of me like, it's over. Just leave me alone. I don't want anything to do with you. That's how negative that situation is, and I don't want anything to do with it. I just want to be over here and be happy [motions to his right], so I'll probably just stay over here and be happy."
