Video: CM Punk Meets Mickey Gall In The Octagon
Largely unproven at only 1-0 in his MMA career, NAGA grappling champion Mickey Gall had the opportunity of a lifetime to win a fight with hyped former pro wrester CM Punk when he faced Golden Gloves boxer Mike Jackson on the prelims of tonight’s UFC Fight Night 82 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Earning his first UFC fight after calling for a bout with Punk after his first-ever MMA win on Dana White’s “Lookin’ For A Fight” Fight Pass show, Gall capitalized in a big way by decimating Jackson in only 45 seconds with a huge right hand and a rear-naked choke for the finish.
After the win, Gall earned his spot in Punk’s UFC debut, and the much-discussed WWE champion stepped into the Octagon to meet Gall face-to-face for their proposed summer meeting. Check it out via UFC on FOX here:
