At #6 in the cruiserweight rankings, Badou Jack — "The Ripper" to fight fans — is past the "prospect" stage. This is contender territory, and every fight from here is a title eliminator in disguise.
The record splits almost evenly between stoppages (17) and decisions (12) — a boxer who can hurt you but doesn't need to in order to beat you.
The last fight went to Noel Mikaelian (Decision (Unanimous)) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.
He's 42 now. Fighters at this stage aren't building toward something; they're spending what's left, and that usually makes for the best fights.
