Set to fight at Bellator 200
Jackson will match up with Anastasia Yankova in a flyweight bout on May 25 at Bellator 200.
ANALYSIS
Jackson lost her last fight at Bellator 191 to Valerie Letourneau via unanimous decision, evening her record at 1-1 with the promotion (9-3-1 overall). She'll look to bounce back and get the win come May, but will have to play spoiler against one of Bellator's more marketable prospects. Jackson stayed active by fighting three times in 2017, but for Yankova, it will be a full calendar year between fights by the time she steps in the cage.

Drops decision against Valerie Letourneau at Bellator 191
Jackson lost to Valerie Letourneau via unanimous decision (27-30, 27-30, 27-30) at Bellator 191 on Friday in Newcastle, England.
ANALYSIS
Prior to this fight, Jackson had not lost an official bout since falling to former UFC Champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk in 2013. In her previous Bellator fight, she had upset veteran Colleen Schneider. However, Schneider was forced out of the bout with an injury. Jackson was competitive in this fight, but she was never really close to winning. She seemed to benefit from Letourneau's passivity. Jackson will likely keep her job in Bellator and continue fighting in the promotion's budding flyweight division.
