As noted, former WWE Champion CM Punk will face Mickey Gall in his debut UFC fight, and according to BestFightOdds, the current betting line for the fight is CM Punk (+230) and Mickey Gall (-300). This means that Punk is the underdog in the fight, as you would win $230 if you bet $100, and Gall is the favorite as you would have to bet $300 to win $100.

It’s not surprising that CM Punk is the underdog in the fight, which is rumored to be taking place at UFC 199 in June, as Gall has a 2-0 MMA record. In the video below, you can see Punk and Gall square off following Gall’s last win:
