LoveUFC interview with Jeremy ‘Scorpion’ Jackson

XiaolinFighter DID get Jeremy 'Scorpion' Jackson, who is one of my personal faves.

1.) The ever-infamous, ever-asked… always annoying question… What style of martial arts did you start with, and at what age?

JJ: My first art was Boxing at the age of nine.

2.) You were obviously introduced to MMA at some point and time. What made you want to fight MMA?

JJ: I watched a video that my older brother brought home with Royce and Ken. I was fighting on the street all the time, and wanted to fight someone that was worth fighting. Never thought I would be on T.V.

3.) Where did the nickname 'Scorpion' come from?

JJ:Fans and team mates started calling me that. I had a tattoo on my chest of a scorpion, and people said I would sting people with my hands.
