Despite announcing his in-ring days were over shortly afterwards, the former husband of Friends actress Courteney Cox appears to still fancy his chances in the fight game.

And when asked by whether he would consider switching to have a go a MMA, Arquette challenge the ex-WWE Champion to a showdown.

He said: “Yo, CM Punk. If you wanna fight, I'm ready bro.

“Come on, any f*****g time.”

Arquette, incredibly, once held the WCW World Heavyweight Championship in one of wrestling’s most-criticised storylines in 2000.

Meanwhile, despite his failures in UFC, CM Punk is widely-regarded as one of the best performers to step in to the ring.

He battled all-time greats such as The Undertaker, John Cena and Brock Lesnar throughout his eight-year stint in WWE.

But his time with the sport entertainment company came to a bitter end after he walked out in 2014 due to health and creative problems, and his contract termination was confirmed to him by letter on his wedding day.

Punk, 40, then signed for UFC but lost his first fight against Mickey Gall inside 45 seconds in February 2016.

He returned to the Octagon in September after a two-year absence but suffered another defeat by unanimous decision to Mike Jackson.

UFC still have Punk under contract but a third fight seems unlikely with the ace also recently joining Cage Fury Fighting Championships as a commentator.
