Damon Jackson: 'It's Got Me Feeling Like An Athlete Again'

Related Topics: Damon Jackson, Billy Quarantillo

It’s good to be Damon Jackson these days.

“I love my life; I got a pretty good one,” says the 36-year-old Texan, who returns to the lightweight division to face Jim Miller this Saturday in New York City. “I'm excited about the move up; it's got me feeling like an athlete again. So yeah, I'd say it's pretty good.”

Not bad for someone bringing a 1-3 record in his last four fights to Madison Square Garden to be the “bad guy” against local favorite Miller, but if the fight game has taught us anything, it’s that all wins and losses aren’t created equal.
