Luke Jackson (born 1 January 1985 in Hobart, Tasmania) is a professional Australian boxer with a current record of 20–2 (8 KOs). Jackson turned professional in 2013 and is the current title holder of the WBA Oceania, WBO Oriental and Australian Featherweight titles.

A former Australian Institute of Sport boxing scholarship holder, he had an amateur record of 113–32 and won a bronze medal at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne. He was named team captain for the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi and represented Australia at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the lightweight division, again as team captain.[1]

Jackson didn't pick up the gloves until the age of 18 but showed a natural talent, coming third at the Australian titles in his first year and winning the title in his second year. The following year he was selected for the Melbourne Commonwealth Games, where he picked up his bronze medal. Explaining why he had stayed an amateur while others had turned professional, he told the Melbourne Age, "To win an Olympic gold medal is harder than any professional world title ever."

Professional career

Jackson vs. Frampton

On August 18, 2018, Luke Jackson faced Carl Frampton for the vacant interim WBO world featherweight championship.[2] Frampton dropped Jackson with an outstanding left hook to the body in the eight round. Jackson could not recover as Frampton continued his offensive at the beginning of the ninth round and managed to stop Jackson to win the fight via TKO.[3]
