Montel Jackson, currently on a five-fight win streak, prepares to face undefeated Daniel Marcos at UFC Des Moines. Jackson speaks to reporters, expressing confidence and calmness as he heads into the match. He believes Marcos poses no new challenges and is reminiscent of what he has previously encountered in the bantamweight division. With Jackson ranked #15 and Marcos unranked, he emphasizes the need to stay active in the fight game, opting for competition over waiting for higher-ranked opponents. His focus remains solely on achieving victory.
"Good striker. He's nothing like the division. He's not like something that I haven't seen in the division before. We got a good makeup of guys who can strike, grapple, do both. It's no different."
"Of course you always do, but it's the fight game. You got to go out there and fight. If I would have got somebody ahead of me it would have meant waiting another 4-5 months. Time waits for nobody so we gotta go."
