Media Damon Jackson says he's moving up to lightweight

[Sticko]

(For the record last Saturday Jackson got 30-25'd by Chepe Mariscal who missed weight by like 5 pounds)

Cliffs:
- Says he's still trying to figure out WTF went wrong
- Had a great camp, one of his best camps ever, and worked really hard training for this fight
- Can't blame it all on the fact that Chepe's bitch ass missed weight although he does think it's a factor
- his previous opponent Alex [Hernandez] also missed weight
- says he's moving to LW, wants to eat some steaks and be happy
- Wants to fight again in Oct/Nov
- Says if he ever has such a shitty performance again it will be the last time you ever see him fight

 

[Question]

Thanks for the cliffs!

I don’t know if the average Sherbro can relate to this. What kind of manlet do you have to be to move UP to lightweight?

They're all inferior.

Btw, that new hair garden he got won't help him at LW.

I'd like to see him have a ponytail for his LW debut, I only see his hair getting more and more beautiful as he moves up in weight.

Put him against Paddy who's sitting at #15

 

[Ladder Master]

So he is just going to be cutting less weight.

Why is he wearing a hat

Him and Alex should both move up. They are drawn out 145ers who are fighting at 75% of their ability.

Surprised he isn't cut. I thought the fight with Hernandez was a loser gets cut situation.

Will he do better going up? Who knows. BUT. I do know he got raped by marsicle, that’s for certain.

Why would he have been cut? He won a split decision against Hernandez.

Damon Jackson is on his second stint with the UFC, and he's now 6-4 since coming back. One of those losses was to Ilia Topuria, the current champ. Another was to Dan Ige.

He had a decent streak going but is 1-3 in his last four. He could of easily gone 0-4 if the split decision didn't go his way. UFC cuts fighters all the time for that, especially a guy like Damon who is in the last few years of his career.

I dig Jackson -- he's a grinder and I find his fights to be generally entertaining. I'm not sure a move to 155 will help much, but you never know with weight class changes.
