LAS VEGAS – Montel Jackson is taking it step by step.
With no fight on the books at the moment, Jackson (13-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) isn’t sure what the future holds in terms of opponents, locations, or dates for his next outing. However, he’s confident the next 18 months will be a period in which he solidifies himself as a UFC bantamweight contender.
“It’s just one step at a time, like everything else,” Jackson recently told MMA Junkie Radio on UFC X Radio Row. “We can worry about what’s in front of us right now. What’s in front of us right now is just making it to the top 15, finishing out the year in the top 15, and going undefeated the rest of this year. 2024, we’re going to start a march toward the title and hopefully work our way down.”
