Jack Cartwright: Oktagon MMA bantamweight contender is eyeing championship glory

In an exclusive interview, Oktagon MMA bantamweight contender and former Cage Warriors 135-pound champion Jack Cartwright chats about life in Oktagon, his approach to fighting, and his upcoming fight with former featherweight champion Mate Sanikidze at Oktagon 61 in Brno.

Cartwright captured the Cage Warriors bantamweight title and fought on Dana White’s Contender Series before signing with fast-rising European promotion Oktagon MMA. And after going 1-1 in his first two fights with the Czech-Slovak promotion, the Englishman is ready to make a statement in Brno as he takes on Sanikidze in a fight that could propel him toward a title shot at 135 pounds, and potentially a rematch with the man who defeated him last time out, Denmark’s former bantamweight champ Jonas Magard.
