UFC welterweight Mike Jackson expects ‘far more superior competition’ than CM Punk

Welterweight fighter Mike Jackson so far holds a lackluster record in the UFC. With a 1-1 slate, his last fight was against CM Punk, whom he defeated via unanimous decision at UFC 225 last June in Chicago.

As he now moves forward in his career, which he revealed back in October is still with the UFC, Jackson says he is no longer accepting any fights against an opponent like Punk and feels he deserves better caliber opponents.

“Look, I’m not fighting CM Punk anymore. That’s long gone,” Jackson told MMA Junkie in a recent interview at the UFC Performance Institute.
