CM Punk will be fighting again at UFC 225, with the former WWE star saying his next fight is on June 9.

The former wrestler was asked by a fan on Twitter when we'll next see him "crying in the octagon" again, with his only fight to date a loss at UFC 203.

Punk chirped back at the fan, saying there'll be tears of joy on June 9.

"June nine, after I win and lock eyes with my beautiful wife, embrace my coaches and shout out my entire team," he tweeted.

It means Punk will fight at UFC 225, with his rumoured opponent to be Mike Jackson.

Reigning UFC welterweight champ Tyron Woodley has backed him in, saying Punk is training as hard as anyone for a fight.

"I just talked with him yesterday," Woodley told The Hollywood Beatdown.

"He's putting in more work than some of these guys who claim they wanna be at the top."
