Former UFC bantamweight champion Quinton Jackson said he hasn't put an end to his fighting career yet.

"No, I'm not done yet. I'm not happy with my last performance, and I can't leave my fans with that. I want to leave the sport on a major note.

I'm in negotiations with Shannon Briggs, our fight has been in the works for a year. I want to try my hand at boxing before I end my career. I could do MMA, but I prefer to box. I'm 44 years old and my knees hurt from fighting, and when you fight MMA, a lot of people want to move you," Jackson told TMZ.

Recall that Jackson had his last fight in December 2019, losing by TKO to Fedor Emelianenko.
