As if this weekend weren’t wild enough between combat sports events and news, it just got a little heavier.

According to a Jeremy Botter of FloCombat, CM Punk’s first UFC fight is targeted for UFC 202 on August 20 in Las Vegas, against Mickey Gall.

Botter, who was none too happy about the ban of MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani, took to Twitter to mention the bout was targeted for the undercard of the Nate Diaz vs Conor McGregor headlined show.

Botter mentioned that he hoped he ‘didn’t ruin any plans’, but he’s probably just made some others.
