After lasting just two minutes, 46 seconds against Gall, Punk was able to make it through all three rounds on Saturday. The former WWE champion lost a lopsided decision with all three judges scoring the bout 30-26 in favor of Jackson.

Despite the loss, Punk got to compete in his hometown of Chicago. He had a busy week away from the Octagon, winning a civil lawsuit against WWE doctor Chris Amann after Amann accused him of defamation from a podcast interview in 2014.
