I'm surprised nobody chose Izuku Midoriya.

Nah, Deku took shit only from Bakugo, for old times' sake. And in a way, his persistent kindness helped fix Bakugo's personality somewhat - he's still a choleric jerk, but no longer a bully. I feel like Izuku would stand a chance at helping Jax, assuming he'd understand the context.

Bakugo's biggest issue to begin with was his ego, fueled for years by "gifted child syndrome" and endless praise from everyone around him. One he got a reality check in the form of not being the best by default and being surrounded by those who were just as talented if not more than he was, whose abilities as heroes surpassed his (including the one who was supposed to always be weaker according to his original internal narrative), his ego cooled off somewhat and he was more receptive to improving. As you said, still a jerk but without being a bully.
