PERTH, Australia – Jack Jenkins won his way into the UFC this past September, but it came with a bitter taste in his mouth. Jenkins earned a UFC shot with a third-round TKO on Dana White’s Contender Series. But even though the UFC president offered Jenkins a UFC deal after his win, he called him a “one-trick pony” in his interview. Saturday, Jenkins (10-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) gets a chance to prove White wrong when he takes on Don Shainis (12-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC) at UFC 284 . Jenkins’ official UFC debut will come in front of a friendly crowd in his native Australia.
