Dan Ige is in desperate need of a win to get out of a three-straight losing streak. The Hawaiian has lost four of his last five fights. In his last contest, he lost to Movsar Evloev by unanimous decision.
On that occasion, even though the fight was evenly matched, Ige could not prevail on the cards. And that defeat left Ige in thirteenth place in the ranking of title contenders.
A loss to Jackson would leave Dan in serious danger of dropping off the challenger’s table. In fact, it will probably be Damon himself who will take his place. A win could see the American move up a few places in the standings.
Damon Jackson
- Odds: +102
- Record: 22-4-1
- Age: 34
- Height: 1.80 m
- Weight: 65 kg
- Reach: 180 cm
Born in Oklahoma, Damon Jackson comes to Las Vegas riding a four-game winning streak. In the last bout he fought, he defeated Pat Sabatini by first-round knockout. Damon dominated the fight completely, and he did not allow Sabatini to defend himself from a barrage of punches.
Without a doubt, Ige is the most renowned opponent Jackson has ever faced in the octagon, making this the toughest fight he has to compete in. A victory could place him among the top fifteen contenders in the featherweight division, something he has not been able to achieve so far in his time with the company.
JefeBet Prediction
Ige comes in on a losing streak, but it’s clear that he’s a much higher ranked fighter than Jackson. The Hawaiian knows he can’t miss the title challenger train, so a win is imperative. And we are sure he will do it, but he will have to fight with tooth and nail in a contest in which he will not have it easy at all.
Prediction: Dan Ige wins by unanimous decision.
