There is currently no word on details of a second pro boxing fight for Fish, who has been a free agent since departing All Elite Wrestling earlier this year. The 46-year-old's contract with AEW expired, with the two parties unable to come to an agreement on an extension, despite reported mutual interest. A difference in financial terms is understood to be the reason behind the non-renewal.
Fish has since become better known for taking shots at CM Punk rather than competing, despite recent appearances for IMPACT Wrestling. His short run there was highlighted by a World Title fight with Josh Alexander on 8 October.
