Mickey Gall to fight CM Punk….. with UFC 196 win
Mickey Gall, the New Jersey native (1-0) professional mixed martial artist who has taken the MMA world by storm over the last two weeks since a preview for ‘Dana White: Lookin’ For a Fight’ aired on the UFC 195 pay-per-view, will now have his shot in the UFC.
Gall, who called out former WWE champion CM Punk (Phil Brooks), will get a shot at the famed pro wrestler turned mixed martial artist, but there is a stipulation in the way.
“I might as well break it here, right?” White said while appearing on TSN’s “Off the Record.” “Mickey Gall – I’m bringing in Mickey Gall in and he’s going to fight a guy named Michael Jackson. They’re going to fight on the prelims on February 6 on fight pass. If he wins that fight, Mickey Gall will fight CM Punk. CM Punk will be there to watch.”
