This left a vacancy with the title and two contenders: Jackson and South Korean boxer and future world champion In-Chul Baek.
His last loss was in 1983 in the U.S. Well, in this bout following three rounds of action, Julian Jackson would hand Baek his second loss by TKO and would claim the World Super Welterweight title.
This was shown in his rematch for the WBC Middleweight title a year later in May 1994 where McClellan knocked him out in the first round.
Julian Jackson would take on Agostino Cardamone in May 1995, winning via TKO in the second round.
Following a failed attempt to take the WBU Light Middleweight title off Verno Phillips in January 1998 ending in a ninth-round knockout, Jackson had one final match.
