DAMON JACKSON VS PAT SABATINI LOWDOWN

Damon Jackson (21-4-1(1)) is having a lot more joy in his second UFC stint. In his first, he only fought three times in three years going without a win, but after going 7-2 for LFA he got his second opportunity. Despite getting clapped by Ilia Topuria (2020) he has collected four impressive wins and coming off a unanimous decision over Charles Rosa (2021), a vintage submission over Kamuela Kirk (2022) and a unanimous decision over Daniel Argueta back in June.

He takes on another tough up and comer in Pat Sabatini (17-3). He is currently on a six-fight win streak and looked superb in his four UFC outings. He earnt a unanimous decision over Tristan Connelly (2021) on debut, caught Jamall Emmers (2021) in a heel hook and is coming off two unanimous decisions over Tucker Lutz (2021) and TJ Laramie back in April.

DAMON JACKSON VS PAT SABATINI PREDICTION

They are both grappling wizards in great form, but this is not a great match up for Jackson. He has the jiu-jitsu to hang with just about anyone in the division however, Sabatini is not only a beast on the mat, but he is also a good boxer with tremendous cardio.

We do not feel Sabatini will be able to submit Jackson, but he has the wrestling and power to seal his own takedowns and assume top control. At the least he can nullify Jackson’s threat and outwork him on the feet with his volume.
