Jamall Emmers Hopes to Avenge Every Loss of His Career

Jamall Emmers wants to correct every blemish on his mixed martial arts record.

Emmers (20-7) will take on fan-favorite Nate Landwehr (17-5) on three weeks’ notice at UFC Atlantic City on March 30.

Emmers replaced Pat Sabatini, who withdrew due to unknown reasons. “Prettyboy,” who suffered a submission loss against Sabatini in 2021, would like the opportunity to avenge that in the future. In fact, the 34-year-old wants to avenge all seven losses of his professional career, even against fighters who have retired.

“Of course, every loss I want back,” Emmers said during UFC Atlantic City media day. “Just letting everybody know this: every loss I want back. Who beat me in the UFC? Pat [Sabatini], we got Julian Erosa, who else, drawing a blank right now. Everybody that beat me, even guys that’s not in the UFC. Probably don’t even fight no more, I still want that back. It’s seven guys that beat me and I want it all back.”

Emmers is well aware that his upcoming opponent thrives in slugfests and plans on carefully picking his shots to secure a finish.

“He’s going to be tough, he’s a tough guy. I have seen him getting dropped and come back, I just got to be smart about it. I know he gets hit and wakes up, so I got to pick my shots and be smart about how I’m going to finish him.” Apart from their fighting styles, Emmers also sees “The Train” as a contrasting personality, which he believes will make for a good fight.

“He’s like the opposite of me. He’s a wild guy, very animated. I think that’s just going to make a good fight, just two opposites going at it.”

UFC Atlantic City will be headlined by a women’s flyweight clash pitting Erin Blanchfield against Manon Fiorot.
