Jack Jenkins Set for Return Against Sean Woodson in Shanghai

Jack Jenkins is gearing up to return to the Octagon this weekend in Shanghai, where he will face Sean Woodson. Jenkins, who last fought in September 2022, has been eager to compete again after an injury sidelined him for nearly a year.

Initially scheduled to fight in May against Marwan Rahiki, Jenkins faced another setback due to injury, delaying his return. Now, he is set to compete for the second time outside of Australia, emphasizing his readiness and excitement to fight again.

During his time away from the sport, Jenkins focused on philanthropic efforts, including donating part of his purse from a previous fight to Ronald McDonald House. He also engaged fans by allowing them to suggest his walkout song for the upcoming fight, ultimately selecting Thunderstruck by AC/DC. Jenkins has prepared extensively for this matchup, studying Woodson's previous fights and bringing in training partners to simulate Woodson's height advantage.
