CM Punk is closer to his UFC debut.
The former WWE superstar has been
itching to fight inside the octagon since he signed with the company in December
2014. Punk suffered a left shoulder injury last fall during a training session
at Duke Roufus' camp.
Punk is recovered and ready to fight. UFC President
Dana White said this week that welterweight Mickey Gall would be Punk's first
opponent should Gall defeat Michael Jackson at UFC 196 on Feb. 6 in Las Vegas.
No fight date has been announced.
Punk told The Associated Press on
Friday he hoped the potential fight with Gall would take place at UFC 200 in
July.
Punk has no opponent lined up should Gall lose his
fight.
