Ever since their feud in UFC 107 in December, there have been multiple times, wherever it was assumed that Evans and Jackson may well collide next to 1 yet another. Nevertheless, Jackson announced a retirement, which did not final for prolonged, but placed the match on hold. Now, with the star announcing a return, quite much recently, the feud has been reignited. Each of them will get an possibility to settle their variations once and for all when they go head-to-head in opposition to just one one more in UFC 114 on May well 29.
