Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson recently sat down with Bas Rutten from Inside MMA to answer fan questions from Facebook.
Jackson’s next bout is expected to be against the fast-rising Glover Teixeira. Jackson and Teixeira were scheduled as the co-main event for UFC 153 but Rampage had to withdraw after suffering an injury. Now, Jackson learns that Teixeira is facing a possible six month medical suspension following his recent win over Fabio Maldonado at UFC 152.
Jackson last fought in February and he doesn’t appear willing to wait to Teixeira. He began calling for a rematch against Forrest Griffin saying that is the fight that everyone wants to see. Griffin defeated Jackson by unanimous decision at UFC 86 in 2008 to win the light heavyweight title. Griffin is already scheduled to face Phil Davis at UFC 155. In classic Jackson fashion he states that the Griffin-Davis fight is going to be boring…no disrespect to anyone.
Jackson also shares some good stuff on his fights with Kevin Randleman and Ricardo Arona.
