I’m glad I DVR the show b/c the childish bickering between Rampage and Rashad gets OLD. Rampage is a legend in his own mind.

I’ve got news for you Rampage: that “boring fighter” Machida would kick your ass in a heartbeat. He’d hit you 20 times in 3 seconds,

As I recall, Rampage was likely to get the next title shot against Machida, but his re-match with Rashad was obviously more important. He must have been working with Tito, learning the head movement on how to duck a fight that he knows he will lose.

Rampage will be back in UFC, because no one else will pay him as much as UFC, and he will look like an even bigger punk if he keeps talking shit about Rashad, and Machida, and then goes and fights in another organization. I also bet that UFC could tie his contract up in court for awhile if he tries to go and fight somewhere else.

nope: With all this…i still think Rampage beats Mousasi. Easily

Agreed. Mousasi has never been in there with anyone remotely close to Rampage.

valzcer: Not a incredible fight,more like a one-sided fight, Mousasi by k.o. in 3rd minute. Pride Rampage is gone.

With all this...i still think Rampage beats Mousasi. Easily

I think Rogan said it best last Saturday. The more this season of TUF unfolds and the more Rashad and Rampage trash-talk each other, the sorrier I am that Rampage backed out of the fight. By the time this season is over, this could be a bigger grudge than Serra/Hughes.

I have a hard time getting too worked up about Rampage. The guy instantly says whatever comes into his head. No filter whatsoever. It’s like the guy has Tourette’s syndrome or something. I don’t think he can stop himself.

“I’m sorry, but say it to your face? Really Rampage? And then what? You’re going to kick their ass right? Take it to the street? Murk them?”

Bravo, sir. Bravo!

Enough Quinton….ENOUGH. You are a professional fighter, fight and stop whining, do your talking in the octagon…nuff said.

Corey,
I’ll be the last guy to ever defend rampage jackson, but he did beat hendo. He’s lost to good fighters, and a beat a decent amount of cans.

Rampage is not going to punch you if you call him out to his face. He’s going to do something much much worse and more hurtful.

Rampage is not fucking around. He will drive to your house with murder on his mind, and a badly drawn caricature of you in the front seat. That caricature was done by Boardwalk Larry in Atlantic City and he paid fifteen dollars for that motherfucker, okay? It has you balancing a ball on your nose at the beach like a seal, for real homie. Like a SEAL WITH A BALL ON ITS NOSE. Because you are just like a big clapping seal for the UFC. Like you Dana White’s seal, boy. SEAL BOY! ARUF ARUF ARUF! LIKE A UF SEAL!

And then he will try to knock down your door. But he will break his hand because the door is not made of cardboard like the doors in the TUF gym. And then he will start injecting himself with wolf tranquilizers and start chewing on the inside of your mailbox. THIS MAILBOX IS FULL OF SHIT! WHO THE FUCK IS PAPA JOHN? I WILL BEAT HIS ASS BECAUSE 11.99 FOR A LARGE ONE TOPPING IS FUCKING BORING AND I WANT TO TAKE A NAP. TAKE A NAP LIKE RASHAD DID WHEN HE FOUGHT MACHIDA MUHA HA HA HA HA HA! And when your mom answers the door to explain you are not home, he will start doing the stanky leg dance and your mother will think he is having a seizure since he is foaming hard at the mouth around even the pizza menu he still has clamped in his teeth.

Then when the paramedics arrive and ask him if he is a danger to himself of others, he will start screaming the word CONTROL and ask them if they brought him any Red Bull. And when they say no, he will not reply other then to make sad small noises “aruf aruf aruf…” and take a shit on your frontlawn. While he is trying to explain to your mother that he named his bowel movement Rashad, Mr. T will peel up the curb in a van with a machine gun coming out of the top, and smack Rampage in the face with a box of Mr. T cereal from 1984 and scream, “You a disgrace, foo’! Stop taking motherfucking crazy pills and start taking your vitamins!” Then Mr. T will hold Rampage down while your mother beats him around the head with Boardwalk Larry’s caricature for scaring the neighbors.

Rampage then tries to tell your neighbors that he’s not a psycho, he’s just a coach, or a fighter, or a seal with stank breath, or titties or I love Kimbo, man do I love Kimbo … damn wolf tranquilizers are making it hard to make brainorgan make wordforms… can I buy a vowel…aruf aruf aruf… As the authorities take Rampage away to Arkham Asylum by letting him wear a couple of bandages around his waist, and pretend its a titlebelt, Mr. T invites everyone out in his magic van for ice cream and unicorns.

The TUF show is making Rashad look like a more mature guy then when he was a cast member.
Rampage is just being Rampage. He is a fighter not a coach and the UFC is just selling their show with his personality.

I cant wait to see him and Rashad fight and we all know…. ITS GONNA HAPPEN! And the winner of that fight should get a #1 contender status

Let’s see. Celebrity with issues. Check. Former star pro athlete who is no good at coaching. Check. Prima donna attitude. Check. “Acting” in a TV show-based movie. Check. Yes, he has everything needed for permanent reality TV “stardom”.

Pride Rampage may be gone (Pride Sakuraba, Pride Wanderlei, Pride Cro Cop, and lots of others are gone, too) and he may be a lousy coach with some issues but I don’t care. I still like Rampage. Even Rashad laughs at his sense of humor. There is no reason to stop being a fan of the guy. I think he’s out of MMA forever. Forget about Pride Rampage. He can go the “entertainer” route, maybe do some wrestling like Ken Shamrock, do some other “reality” shows and B movies. Not too shabby in the scheme of things.

Jackson is just a very messed up human being IMO. At times he seems normal, but then he can be extremely weird. I mean.. i like him and i am a fan of his, because i grew up watching his fights in pride and other organisations. So.. i still feel like i am a fan. But he is losing my respect slightly by the way he is acting. And what he says. It just seems to me (without trying to sound like an expert in human psychology lol) that Jackson has alot of unresolved issues… in alot of areas in his life. His childhood obviously wasnt perfect. And his career hasnt been perfect. There has been alot of ups and downs for him. I think he needs a break from fighting. And i hope he comes back with a clear mind. And he can start giving us great entertaining fights once again. I just hope Dana White lets him back in after what he has said…

Rampage playing the victim is getting old. Nothing is ever his fault. He is misunderstood. People are portraying him in a negative light.

I am with everyone else. He obviously has emotional issues. His responses to everything are that of a child.

I used to be a fan.

jding3: We all know that Rampage isn’t going to stay retired forever. But right now I can’t see him ever coming back to fight in the UFC, it just seems that there are too many obstacles to overcome. Do you think the UFC would ever sell the remaining fights on his contract to Strikeforce. I’d love to see Mousasi Vs Jackson, that’d be an incredible fight

Not a incredible fight,more like a one-sided fight, Mousasi by k.o. in 3rd minute. Pride Rampage is gone.

By that I mean that even though many sites say the fight was controversial, Cory has been the only one so far to say, “You know what? It was more than controversial, it was downright wrong.” same thing with calling out Rampage. Every other site just reports what he says, you’re the first to call him out on it.

You’re going to be on his next blog though Cory, I must warn you. He is going to complain about how fake you, and all of us, are. After that he will then awkwardly tie it to how Rashad is a giant douche.

Well said, Cory. I would only add that Quittin calling out one of the TUF fighters and taunting them constantly is complete BS. The TUF guys have literally everything to lose and as far as they knew,
Ranaway Jackson was untouchable, the golden boy of the UFC whom Dana and the Fertittas would go to the ends of the earth to protect and coddle.
It’s a bit funny that it’s all come back to bite White, the Fertittas, and the UFC right on the ass.

There may be no winners in the whole deal, ratings aside . . . but Quittin Jackson, who now plays dress up for a living without getting hit in the face, has shown he’s a poser and a loser. I will forever
root against Jackson. Yeah, I’m that small minded.

MacBatty: Dude this guy loses cool points everytime he opens his mouth….I’m waiting for a piece of Wanderlei’s Knee to fall out of it.When TUF started i can honestly say i couldnt wait for him to destroy Rashad…Now i am questioning if i am even his fan….AND on top of that i am kinda starting to like Rashad.Great article Cory youve been on fire lately!

You said that perfect man. I am actually really coming around to Rashad. I hope he doesn't ruin it the way he always does by going on rant about how he's the best. I highly doubt it will be Rampage's last whiner blog but everything he is saying lately is starting to get to me. Thank you again Cory for standing by the fans and sticking up to the fighters and the popular media.
