Rampage: Dana says I can go after my next fight

Quinton "Rampage" Jackson recently fought Ryan Vader in Japan. When Rampage came in at 211 for a 206 pound cutoff, a disappointed Dana White reacted. "You better get motivated," wanred White. "Because guess what – Ryan Bader's motivated to kick your ass."

A motivated Vader did just that, outstriking Rampage by 109 to 30 according to FightMetric. White commented further.

"I'm disappointed," White said. "I think Rampage is so talented. I just question whether he wants to do this anymore and have been since probably the A-Team movie."

Rampage took the remarks personally, and set out on a exteded rebuttal on twitter, citing injury, and expressing the desire to fight for another organization.

Quinton Jackson ? @Rampage4real
Let me clear things up 4 my fans,it might take 2 tweets! I'm upset cause I've been fighting hurt 4 a few years now, cause I have kids n 4 yall 

Quinton Jackson ? @Rampage4real
The @ufc knew I was hurt, n almost everyfight I was hurt n, but instead of saying thanks 4 not pulling out, they talk s--- about a poor job....

Quinton Jackson ? @Rampage4real
I never missed weight, but when I do, nobody stop 4 a second 2 ask if I was hurt, yall just quick 2 talk shit ,so I'm done with them after

Quinton Jackson ? @Rampage4real
I'm not complaining about money, cause I'm about 2 make a lot less money now,but at least the people I fight 4 will appreciate what I do4mma

@guitardedfalcon
nobody asked if u were hurt cuz you already made it known that you wasn't excited for the bader fight...

Quinton Jackson ? @Rampage4real
I've never said that I wasn't excited,I was happy 2 fight n Japan,so shut the f--- up! I never said s--- I took it happy!

Quinton Jackson @Rampage4real

Johnathon Korte ? @GoBlue6989
I love gym time nothing better than being able to throw some weight around. If you are done with ufc so am I bro hoooowwwllll

Read entire twitter...

 

Hard to care about someone fighting when its clear they dont.

Hopefully they give him someone who will actually fight him and give him a good send off win or lose.

Also WTF at that video lol

keep it classy rampage!

whatta hoe 

 who is rampage's manager? he needs to get a hold of him...rampage threatening to go to another org after his last fight?

guess what, he will sit on the shelf for 5 years

He's turned me from a huge fan into not giving a shit what he does. This self pity shit is very annoying Phone Post

Randy Couture left

Dan Henderson left

Rampage gets to leave too...

Lol at the UFC did me wrong. STFU you keep losing and they keep treating u like Gold. Sorry he's not a legend just an overblown good fighter. Phone Post

 ryan vader? really ug blog?

Brigham you are spot on

Brigham - He's turned me from a huge fan into not giving a shit what he does. This self pity shit is very annoying Phone Post
What he said Phone Post

there are some seriously delusional fucking people in this world


This guy is clearly one of them

CYA RAMPAGE BRO IT WAS SWEET READING YOUR TWITTER MAN

cross3dout - Lol at the UFC did me wrong. STFU you keep losing and they keep treating u like Gold. Sorry he's not a legend just an overblown good fighter. <img src="/images/phone/apple.png" alt="Phone Post" border="0" style="vertical-align:middle;"/>



Is Chuck a legend?

Is Dan Henderson a legend?

Is Wanderlei a legend?



Guess who has wins over those guys?

He beat Machida too 2 rounds to 1... and people still talk highly of Machida.

Who's lasted the most rounds against JBJ in the UFC?

UFC is not going to throw him a softball for his last fight.

It's very possible he leaves the UFC on a 3 fight losing streak

When Dan complained about money... nobody talked down on him.

When Randy did movies... nobody said anything

who really gives a shit about rampage these days anyway Phone Post

kostello - When Dan complained about money... nobody talked down on him.

When Randy did movies... nobody said anything




He's mentioned more than it just being about money. He says fighting isnt as fun anymore and also that the UFC is the org that sucked the fun out of fighting for him.

Also he's tired of fighting "leg humpers" as he puts it. The only guy In recent memory that I recall really dry humping him the whole fight is Rashad.

Rampage (and other fighters alike) that complain about fighters not sitting there trading bombs with them should really just go into boxing or kickboxing. Theres plenty of fighters there that will be more than happy to oblige them....but oh wait. They wouldnt cut it.
