Jason Jackson Told He'd Get Title Rematch, In Tournament Instead
Briefly

Jason Jackson, the former Bellator Welterweight Champion, gears up for the PFL 170-pound tournament as a favorite, though he's frustrated about not receiving a promised title rematch after a close loss to Ramazan Kuramagomedov. Jackson had to resolve his visa issues to compete in Ireland, amplifying his bewilderment at Bellator's nonchalant attitude toward his championship aspirations. With a highly anticipated fight against former Bellator champion Andrey Koreshkov approaching, he also emphasizes the importance of mentoring young fighters back in Jamaica, wanting to share his experience and skills with the next generation.
I'm surprised that I never got the championship rematch I was promised after such a close decision loss. It’s frustrating and confusing.
Going back to Jamaica and coaching the next generation was everything I wanted. It's important to pass down skills and give opportunities.
Facing Andrey Koreshkov will be a challenge, but I believe I am the better fighter. I'm ready and excited for this matchup.
The PFL world tournament is highly competitive, and being one of the favorites feels great, even if this isn't where I initially wanted to be.
