Damon Jackson may be retired – kinda/sorta. Or, maybe like in “Friends,” he’s just on a break. Let’s go with that.
Jackson recently told MMA Junkie Radio the word of his retirement from the UFC may have been a little premature. He’s on a planned hiatus away from things, but expects it to be short – so short, in fact, that he’d take a return to the cage mid-year.
Jackson (23-8-1 MMA, 6-6-1 UFC) took his gloves off and left them in the middle of the octagon following his first-round submission loss to Jim Miller at UFC 309 in November. But he told MMA Junkie Radio that loss was in the wake of all kinds of issues outside the cage, and he thinks with those reasonably far enough in the rearview mirror, he’ll be back to his better form.
