It appears that former WWE star CM Punk could potentially step inside the octagon for the second time in 2017

That is according to an Instagram post uploaded by trainer Duke Roufus which appears to hint at a second fight in the UFC for the man who was comprehensively beaten by Mickey Gall in his professional debut at UFC 203 in September 2016.

Punk, otherwise known by his real name Phil Brooks, has allegedly continued to train under Roufous and is reported to be working towards a second fight in the UFC.

While UFC President Dana White intimated that a second fight would be unlikely for Punk in the promotion, White’s propensity for changing his mind at the drop of a hat means that Punk’s fans may have reason for optimism.

Roufus wrote:
