Since his quick loss at UFC 203, CM Punk's future was in question after Dana White made comments in a post fight interview about Punk's future in the company. Now it seems like that question has been answered.

Former WWE and World Heavyweight champion CM Punk didn't have the best debut in the octagon against Mickey Gall back at UFC 203. Gall made quick work of the wrestler turned fighter by defeating him via submission. After the fight, White said that "if CM Punk has another fight, it probably shouldn't be in the UFC". ​Those comments put Punk's future in question.

Its been over a year since Punk fought in the octagon (he fought Gall on September 10, 2016) and now it seems like CM Punk may have another bout in the UFC. In a tweet, Dana White posts, "CM Punk is coming to Detroit and wants to talk to me. I love the guy. We'll see what he's doing."

While this doesn't guarantee if Punk will be fighting again in the octagon, its encouraging news that Dana White and Punk will be meeting in regards to his future with the company. If Punk does fight again in the octagon, hopefully he pulls out an impressive showing this time around as his debut was deemed a failure.
