CLEVELAND -- One show, one match at a time, CM Punk climbed to the top of pro wrestling, acquiring unimagined fame and fortune along the way.It wasnt enough. He needed more, a challenge to satisfy his inner drive. A dream.And now, he said, here I am.On the verge of stepping into the UFCs octagon, an arena where some say he doesnt belong.One of WWEs biggest stars before leaving the squared circle two years ago, Punk makes his long-awaited debut as an MMA fighter on Saturday night in UFC 203, where he wont be in the main event but where hes the top draw and greatest curiosity.When he takes center stage a month shy of his 38th birthday, Punk, who was born Phil Brooks, will complete a two-year journey that began on Jan. 27, 2014, when he informed WWE chairman Vince McMahon that he was done with wrestling. That conversation took place in Quicken Loans Arena, where Punks first foray in mixed martial arts will be witnessed by more than 20,000 fans and a pay-per-view audience interested in his unique story.The symmetry is not lost on Punk, who has spent grueling hours training for his bout with 24-year-old Mickey Gall. Just as he was in his days as a brash, do-whatever-it-takes-to-win wrestler, Punk is certain hell come out victorious.I belong here and my team belongs here, he said earlier this week. Im confident in my preparation. To me, its never too late to start something. If you think otherwise, Im sorry your dreams are so small.Punks fight with Gall will precede a heavyweight title matchup between champion -- and Cleveland native -- Stipe Miocic, who will take on Alistair Overeem, one of the divisions top-ranked contenders. Also Fabricio Werdum, knocked out in the first round by Miocic in May, will take on Travis Browne in a rematch.While former pro wrestler Brock Lesnar successfully transitioned from wrestling to MMA, he didnt attempt it as deep into his athletic career as Punk, who says the pace of UFC training is more conducive to family life after years on the road performing in arenas around the world.He has spent the past 12 months in Milwaukee, working with Duke Roufus and others at the Roufusport Martial Arts Academy.You have good days, you have bad days. You have frustrating days. You have breakthroughs. You turn corners.dddddddddddd You make friends. You are with your team. Your team is your family, he said. No matter how frustrating or how bad a day got, its still awesome Im enjoying all of this. Youve got to be a sick individual to enjoy some of the gnarlier aspects of the training, but this has been amazing.Unlike the scripted WWE, where outcomes are decided long before wrestlers lock arms, nothing is planned inside the UFCs caged, eight-sided playpen.Punk has prepared himself as best he can for the chaos that takes place, but acknowledges there are some unknowns. Hes lost more than 20 pounds from his wrestling days, but feels more than adequately adept in his new sport.I use the correlation of you know how to drive an automatic car and now youre learning how to drive a stick shift, Punk said in comparing the athletic adjustment hes made. If you think too much about it, youre not going to be able to do it, but if you learn and you practice and you drill and youre serious about it, you can drive it and then it becomes second nature. Youre still driving a car.For Gall, the matchup with Punk fulfills his own dream.He gravitated to MMA after trying other sports, then took advantage of an appearance GENEVA -- Roma hung on to draw 1-1 at Porto in a Champions League playoff first-leg on Wednesday after having defender Thomas Vermaelen sent off before halftime on his debut.Seeking to improve on Italian clubs dire run in the playoff round, Roma began strongly and led in the 21st minute when Porto defender Felipe diverted a cross into his own net.Porto dominated the second half against 10 Roma men but only scored through Andre Silvas penalty in the 61st, awarded for handball against substitute Emerson Palmieri .Monaco won 2-1 at Villarreal in a rare loss for a Spanish team at this stage of the competition, and Celtic beat Champions League newcomer Hapoel Beer Sheva 5-2.Irish minnow Dundalk lost 2-0 to visiting Legia Warsaw, and Ludogorets Razgrad beat Viktoria Plzen 2-0.Return matches are played on Tuesday, and winners advance to the 32-team group-stage draw in Monaco on Aug. 25.Italian clubs have failed in the playoffs for five of the last six seasons, typically leaving Serie A with only two representatives among Europes elite.Roma looked to exploit shaky Porto defending, including one handling error by goalkeeper Iker Casillas that almost gifted Edin Dzeko a goal.When a weak Casillas punch teed up Mohamed Salah, the Spanish veteran saved twice from the Egypt winger and again when the loose ball fell to Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan.The game turned when Vermaelen was shown a second yellow card in the 41st minute of his first match since moving on loan from Barcelona last week.The Belgium defender struck Andre Silva with a raised boot on the edge of the penalty area with his eyes fixed on a lofted pass and not the Porto forward.Porto thought it had levelled in the 50th but a goal awarded to Adrian Lopez was then disallowed for offside after Dutch referee Bjorn Kuipers consulted with two assistants.Its a positive result, Nainggolan said. We regret not scoring more goals in the first half, when we were on top.While Italy has struggled in the Champions League, Spain would again have five teams in the group-stage draw if Villarreal advances.Monaco led from a third-minute penalty by Fabinho, before another Brazilian, Alexandre Pato, equalized with a close-range header in the 36th. Monaco led for good in the 72nd through Bernardo Silva.Celtic raced to a 3-0 halftime lead against its Israeli visitors, started by Australia midfielder Tom Rogic and capped by a stoppage-time free kick by Leigh Griffiths -- his second goal in just over six minutes.The perennial Scottish champion lost in the playoff round the past two seasons, and was pegged back by two Hapoel goals in three minutes, by Lucio Maranhao and Maor Melikson. The three-goal lead was restored by substitute Moussa Dembele and Scott Brown.Dundalk would be the first team from Ireland to advance from the qualifying rounds in 25 seasons since the European Cup was rebranded as the Champions League.Playing at the national stadium in Dublin, Dundalk was undone by second-half goals for Legia: a Nemanja Nikolic penalty in the 56th, and Aleksandar Prijovic in stoppage time.Ludogorets also played at its national stadium, in Sofia, because the Bulgarian champions own stadium does not meet UEFA standards. It led through defender Cosmin Motis 51st-minute penalty and Dutch forward Virgil Misidjan added a second in the 64th.
