Phil Brooks, better known by his WWE moniker CM Punk, is now set to make his big octagon return. Now the opening betting odds for the highly anticipated fight have been revealed.
CM Punk first faced off inside the octagon back at UFC 203. Despite it being the former WWE superstar’s first ever mixed martial arts match, the professional wrestler turned fighter managed to lock in a bout under the banner of the world’s most famous mixed martial arts promotion.
Opponent Mickey Gall put a swift end CM Punk, earning a submission victory within the first round. Since then, Punk has been hard in training for his hopeful octagon return.
Now the fighter is set to face off against Mike Jackson at UFC 225. The live pay-per-view event will take place June 9 inside the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
As reported by betting site Bovada, Punk has opened as a +200 underdog against Mike Jackson at -260 for the opening betting odds.
