Professional career

Jackson fought the biggest fight of his career in January 2014 against four-time world champion Anthony Mundine. Jackson lost by unanimous points decision.[3]

Jackson fought Kerry Hope in June 2015. Hope was originally scheduled to fight Michael Zerafa for the Interim WBO Oriental Middleweight title, but Zerafa pulled out days before the fight. Jackson took the fight on only a few days notice, defending his WBO Oriental Middleweight Title. Jackson again lost by unanimous points decision.[4]
