UFC welterweight Jack Della Maddalena is not interested in cherry-picking any of his fights. The former Eternal MMA champion has finished all but one of his professional wins and is eager to take on the division’s best. The likes of rising stars Sean O’Malley and Paddy Pimblett haven’t been initially keen on fighting ranked opposition without a pay raise , and while Maddalena (11-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC) understands that approach, he doesn’t apply it to himself. “It makes sense,” Maddalena told MMA Junkie. “If you aren’t that very confident in your own skills and you want to just take the slow route, then that’s fair enough. But I feel if you are confident in your skills and you do see yourself as someone that wants to compete with the best, I feel like you just take the best fights you can.
