Rampage Jackson: I've Never Been Ashamed To Be A Part Of MMA Till Now

 

Rampage Jackson blogs post UFC 104(registration required):

I was watching the fight this weekend with the director of the A Team movie, the movie crew & a couple of actors & I never been ashamed to be a part of MMA till now. The UFC looked like assholes this weekend. The main event was boring. I anticipated that because let's be real.. Machida is a boring fighter. But Shogun getting robbed like that was pretty cut throat. Then you hear Joe Rogan say you "you have to beat the champ to be a champ." & that made me think the UFC are full of shit! Not to be whiny here but I still don't feel like I've been beat in the UFC.. but I'm not champ anymore. If the UFC gives Shogun an immediate rematch because of the controversial loss then that would validate everything I have said about the UFC in my recent posts & why I'm pissed at the UFC. But yet he deserves one & so have I deserved one against Forrest.

The reason why I was ashamed of the UFC is because some people around me were saying that the UFC is becoming corrupt like boxing & asked me is that stuff real? Most of the people from the A Team movie were just watching it because I was watching it & they don't know much about MMA & were starting to get into it but last night they didn't have anything good to say about my sport. So I was so ashamed.

One good thing came out of the fight last night. Rashad looked more like a bitch. If he would have just tried to fight Machida instead of just nutting up he probably could have done better. I saw every last one of Machida's weaknesses this last weekend. No wonder TUF is editing Rahsad to try to make him look good cause they need all their fighters to sell tickets. They never should have tried to make me look bad cause I'm the wrong person to pull that type of crap with. Cause I don't give a fuck about the TUF show or about the UFC. There's not another fighter on this planet that can do what I do & they know it. I don't need them. All they did was fucken piss me off. & any fighter on my team who says they lost a fight because of my coaching can fucken kiss my ass & say that shit to my face. It's very easy to point the fingers when you lose. But I can't get into the cage & fight for ya'll. I can only fight for myself. & for all you UFC & TUF fans out there, here's a big announcement.... IT'S A DAMN TV SHOW! With how much footage they got & how much editing they did, they can make anyone look the way they want. This is my last time blogging about this damn TUF show. Just because I don't go into the cage when a fighter loses & cry all over him & hug on him makes me a bad person? I have many reasons why I don't go into the cage cause when I'm pissed I make bad decisions. So you guys say whatever you want to say about me, all the crap you want about Rampage, but one thing I'm gonna tell you is that Rampage is real & straight up Rashad is fake as hell. When I was coaching the show, I forgot that Rashad won the first heavyweight TUF show. I didn't think about the outcome or editing of the TUF show & them promoting their own. I don't see nothing wrong with that but don't do it on another guy's expense.

The UFC needs to get some new judges before I even think about coming back. I want the hardcore fans to go back & watch all the fights that you thought was kinda shady with the judges in the UFC & TUF & write down the names of the judges so you guys can complain & have a voice. Do your homework. This sport wouldn't be what it is without the fans. Its hard for me to believe that the UFC is so successful & has over 100 shows & can't tell who wins a fight. How is it that they can't tell who wins a fight on an important title fight? Me doing TUF 10 & seeing how they edited it now & seeing how Wes Shivers lost his fight is making me very skeptical about the UFC. Note to TUF: Anybody involved in making the TUF show do me a big favor... Don't look at me cause you're fake. Don't talk to me cause you're fake. Don't even think about me cause you're fake. & if you do you might just get cussed the fuck out.

Wow.

hahaha

Also…doesn’t he know that the UFC doesn’t appoint the judges? However, I do agree that he deserved an immediate re-match agaisnt Forrest….cause I still believe Rampage won that one.

yeah, but he went on his little “roadrage incident” shotly after, so that kinda makes it a moot point. i think dana had planned on giving him a rematch, but……rampage is an I-D-I-O-T

It was a draw in my book, but yeah still… re-match.

bdw makes an awesome point though

Bloody hell.

So much of this sounds like sour grapes, and yet so much of it is legit.

I mean, this was a corrupt decision. The first thing I thought of when I saw the decision handed down was, “Damnit, these judges have too much experience with dumb-ass corrupt as hell boxing.”

Yet, so much of this also just seems like bitter as hell name calling.

Rampage, you might want to do your homework, cause the UFC does not hire judges

Praise God Rampage!!!! You’re truly one of God’s Soldiers. You’re a great representative for Christians around the world…..sike.

I agree but Rampage’s “loss” to Forrest wasn’t as controversial as Shogun’s loss to Machida. Rampage did win that fight in my eyes but I can understand why some would think Forrest edged it. Shogun’s loss on the other hand was robbery. Plain and simple.

Judging in MMA needs to be revamped completely. I’d like it if some ex fighters judged the fights instead of old guys who have never thrown a single punch in their lives for the most part.

It pisses me off when people say that you shouldn’t leave it to the judges… Then why have judges? Finishing tough guys like Machida is easier said that done. Shogun did everything right. There needs to be a way to overrule such absurd judging.

Funny thing

It’s because of Shogun that we call Machida “tough” (in the sense of having a chin).

I guess I am the only one who thought Forrest won the fight? 2nd round was a 10-8 rampage only landed 3 punches in the round

by EVeezy on Oct 28, 2009 1:17 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions   0 recs

nah

that wasn’t 10-8 round IMO…

Why this stuff is gold why would you want this to stop?

by EVeezy on Oct 28, 2009 1:18 AM EDT via mobile up reply actions   0 recs

Because he’s a fan lol

Bloody hell.

Like Rampage, always thinking about himself and how he looks in front of his friends. Typical and expected remarks to deter attention away from his own fears and issues. I still want the coaches to fight darn it! =)

by cosmosherry on Oct 27, 2009 11:21 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Man, gauging the reaction to this on different blogs and forums I can say the reactions range from ‘pretty negative’ to ‘very negative’.

He’s losing fans at an exponential rate.

Bloody hell.

by 3PA on Oct 27, 2009 12:08 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Oh

Yall probably remember me as a huge Rampage supporter…don’t get me wrong…I’d still like to see the guy fight…but he definitely lost some cool pts. from me…

Yeah, for me it’s moving from ‘annoyance’ to ‘dislike’ with every statement he makes =/

He just comes off as a real doucher here.

Bloody hell.

kelvin

thats kinda like me with randy couture and his “incident” when he left. at 1rst i was like “what’s up?”, but then randy said alot of dumb things that where proven wrong. i always be a fan, but that did shed a different light on him to me.

by bdw on Oct 27, 2009 1:38 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yep

same here…I was never the BIGGEST Couture fan…I mean he was ‘cool’ or whatever…but when he resigned and all..I really started to dislike him at that point.

rampge will be back in a year’s time…and dana will remember all this. rampage can say what he wants about shogun…..lol. i just remember the devastation chute boxe and shogun/vanderlei meted out to him over in Pride. Rampage lost to Forrest in a boring fight…Rampge squeaked by Hendo in a boring fight, i’m frankly glad he’s gone. he wasn’t impressive stateside i n the UFC other than beating what we now know was a past his prime liddell.
