It’s getting harder and harder to stay on Rampage Jackson‘s good side. We already know not to ask him questions about anything other than his upcoming fight — and you definitely shouldn’t offer to “squash the beef” afterwards. New rule: Don’t pick against him, either, because he will verbally sit you down even if you’re a beloved UFC Hall of Famer. Via Rampage4Real last night:
“Fuck @Randy_Couture I used 2 rep his line,and he always picked my opponents over me, at 1st it was cool till hamill #has been … @Randy_Couture fuck u dude, u a fake ass has been, I was a real friend and kept my mouth shut when I didn’t know if u would win or lose”
Randy tried to keep things classy in his response:
“It sucks that rampage would take an objective pick on a fight personally. He’s a great guy and a friend. All the best to him!…I thought hamill would eek out a dec. in that fight and rampage took it personal. They’re objective and I’m wrong alo[t]“
Look, we understand how a fighter like Jackson can take this sort of thing personally — but come on, publicly cursing out Randy Couture and calling him a has been? That’s cold-blooded. And since Randy’s retired, they can’t even settle this mess in the cage. Randy will just have to console himself with the fact that The Expendables killed The A-Team in worldwide gross.
Be prepared to see Rampage upset with even more people leading up to his fight against Jon Jones — Jackson is nearly a 4-1 underdog at the moment.








Machiavelli Says: I’ll take Couture’s predictions over Jackson’s 100% of the time. With Rampage, everything is personal.
Xenophon Says: There is one difference yet that failed to seized upon. That "Jive-Ass Jackson" actually has his own skin in the game. On the other hand, Randy is now like so many others (us), sitting on the sidelines talking smack.
The difference in this match is going to be "the pace."
Upset Power Shot - Jackson
Pace Advantage - Jones
