Brazilian jiu-jitsu career
When DJ Jackson started practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu on the Team Lloyd Irvin, he immediately caught the attention of his coach, Lloyd Irvin. He entered the competition very soon at the request of his coach. In a short time, he shone in prestigious competitions and eliminated all of his opponents. His high level of athleticism earned him a black belt in 2012 in less than four years.
Mixed martial arts career
While practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Jackson decided to practice and compete in mixed martial arts. He fought four times between 2015 and 2016, which resulted in four victories, including two submissions.
Coaching career
Since 2019, Jackson has been an official Brazilian jiu-jitsu and mixed martial arts coach in Thailand.
