    Rampage is a real legend of MMA! He fought in the most exciting era of MMA the pride era, and had some incredible performances, then he came to UFC and won the title. Go back and watch rampage Vs randelman from 2003 the take down defence from rampage was absolutely insane he was SO strong, the arona slam, the beating he gave Chuck, and his fights with wanderlei were all incredible. What a career and he sounds lucid and speaks perfect best of luck and health ☘️

    Rampage checked one of Fedors leg kicks so hard I'm pretty sure Fedor at least fractured his leg. He stumbles back and goes "ahhhh" and does a little dance for a second like he was in high heels on a slippery runway.Fedor being the man fought through it though he's a real one. One of the best checks I've ever seen and people say Rampage doesn't check kicks, but the obviously aren't real fans. Shout out to Rampage for liking this comment.

    @AirLancer Год назад

    Wish Rampage's acting career could've gone places, if only for his health. From what I know he was pretty well received for his role in the A-Team, so it's unusual how the man just didn't get any other roles considering his charisma and built-in fanbase. I mean you're telling me Hollywood couldn't have at least made a few mid-budget action films starring Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson, the same industry that did its hardest to turn Adrian Brody into an action star? Or at least some supporting roles. According to Rampage himself, he thinks he was sabotaged by his agency...which was the same company that ended up buying the UFC.
