CM Punk’s first and only Mixed Martial Arts fight took place on September 10th, 2016. Punk lost to Mickey Gall at UFC 203 via submission in the first round. It has been unclear if UFC would be giving Punk another fight based on how the first one went.

According to a report from Ariel Helwani of MMA Fighting, UFC is currently discussing CM Punk’s return for the upcoming UFC 225 card.
This would be interesting for a couple of reasons.
1) UFC 225 takes place in Chicago. This is where Punk lives and is a major local draw.
2) His opponent is rumored to be Mike Jackson. If you don’t know who he is, he is the fighter who lost to Mickey Gall in 2016. That fight was for the right to face Punk, which Gall ultimately won.
The fight isn’t signed just yet according to Helwani but it is looking like it could happen. The event takes place on June 9th.
Here is a list of WWE stars who have also fought in Mixed Martial Arts.
Would you watch Punk fight again?
