ฝัง

- In 2013 Bellator MMA paid big bucks to make Quinton "Rampage" Jackson the face of their promotion, only to end up with a bloated, unmotivated shadow of his former self.

3:05 the fact that rampage missed that flinch is priceless
Tito can't do anything right 😂
Man Tito is so fucking awkward lol
Man Tito literally flinched at em and went to shake his hand all in 1 motion 🤣🤣🤣
Quite literally missed him with that flinch
Rampage looked down and though it was a handshake 💀
Rampages longevity is pretty impressive, all things considered
Oh for sure.
@@thediaz07 from pride to Bellator that’s a long career
One if his better attributes looking back on his career
@@jesse7157 Ya never thought of it that way
more like roundgevity
Honestly I’m a fan of Rampage no matter what. He’s a fun guy outside of the cage and was good enough inside the cage. That’s all you need in sports
Rampage was one of the fighters that got me into watching MMA. Guy was hilarious and his slam KO's were scary as hell. Was depressing to see him just turning up fat as hell for a payday.
Also just FYI, you used a tiny clip of the schmo there at the end, be careful cause he got in the pocket MMA shut down with copyright strikes cause they used a few seconds of his footage!!
I didn’t think the schmo was a douche like that is that for real?
Lol schmo is such a try hard dork
His Bellator run was actually better than I had thought
Yeah he’s been competitive there for awhile now. His only embarrassing loss being against Fedor.
i really hope this channel grows more , underrated content consistently too
Rampage basically made the same money from bellator years ago as Ngannou does now with the UFC. And Dana wonders why his HW champ is walking away from the UFC
Rampage atleast promotes himself Francis doesnt there is the difference
Frank is probably the biggest retard in the UFC. He will end up losing his belt and getting 0 boxing fights, his gamble will not pay off
Francis needs a better agent
And how is bellator doing compared to the UFC? Don’t know why people alway point to failing companies to the ufc like they would want to emulate that at all.
@@danielbras5123 bellator has been around a long time how are they failing?
From pride to ufc to bellator man is a legend of the sport
I got hooked on mma watching pride Japan fights. Rampage comes out howling and a chain around his neck. Those were great days back then.
"Hampage"
Page was my favorite fighter in Pride, those were good times. Always a legend.
Oof. Now we can talk about Pancakes Jackson
Brother the Mans name is IceCream Sandwich Smith!!!
And you better put a bit of Respec on his name because he’s Blasian
Lmao old Jackson would have
"Pancakes Jackson" 🥞 😂
I mean at least he was winning in online gaming matches
What you call me mutha fucka? Oh I said Pancrase Jackson sir 😳
Took a dive in the Fedor fight I’m convinced, also another gem produced by you guys can’t say I’m surprised, please keep blessing me with this content
I think he just didn’t want to get annihilated. Even though Fedor isn’t what he used to be, he’s a hell of a lot more than Rampage is. So I don’t think he threw the fight but I do think he was just content collecting his paycheck without a broken orbital to go with it. It’s not exactly like the betting line would have benefited from Rampage purposely losing anyway.
He took a dive after he realized how ridiculously out of shape and slow he was.
@@thehound1359 lol
He gained so much weight...He should of been at 205lbs to fight Fedor
@@daveycash3479 Yeah nobody was betting on Rampage there's no money in it right?
holy shit tito tried to flinch rampage at 3:04 an dude didnt even notice hahahahahahahaha
Haha typical Tito
This man has been a machine for many years. Thank you for your service
Rampage was the most brutal fighter ever to fight. The dude had a vicious side which always made for entertaining fights
Rousimar Palhares is somewhere ripping his training partners leg apart while frowning at your comment
@@lennaymaboyyy4848 good point although Rampage was civilized enough to know when to stop trying to wrench an arm bar or when to not gouge out somebodies other eye after the first "unintentional" eye poke..... Versus Palhares who viewed crippling his opponents at least as important as getting the W
@@thegadflygang5381 this implies Rampage ever got an armbar on anyone lmao
@@muzz4610 I remember him using it one or two times off hand but I don't think he ever used one to submission. But he was the master of the "arm bar slam" which if we are being honest is alot more crowd pleasing.
I remember one time Fedor actually did curls while Aoki had an arm bar on him. He did it a few times,, just literally curling the dude in a full armbar
3:04 😂
Even though he's known for being "Rampage" and swinging for the fences he seems to have decent skills as well.
He does. Hes an underrated defensive grappler and is not a brawler at all he sets up his boxing really well and on his good nights mixed things up really well.
@@markt5090 lol at not a brawler
@@1986subway hes really not. He has that reputation but hes got pretty clean boxing. He doesnt swing wild haymakers or anything like say Wenderlei
When he was prime rampage, he was pretty damn awesome!
@@markt5090 So true, in his prime years from 03 to 09 or so, he also had some of the best knees in all of mma , not to mention good leg kicks too. Combine that with being an extremely technical boxer with great grappling made him the best all-around LHW of that era. He kinda got a bit one-dimensional following his "loss" to Griffin though. I say "loss" because there's no effin way Forrest won that fight, it was at worst a draw if not an outright win for Rampage, (possibly the worst decision in UFC history imo).
I like how straightforward these videos are
This is gonna be a good one!
Rampage did a lot in his career, he had some of the most exciting fights and memorable in fight moments in the history of the sport. The slams, the powerbombs , the wars, the capturing of the UFC title and then the unification bout with Dan Henderson. But for me post 2007 that was when I noticed the motivation starting to fade and maybe because past that point he had done everything he needed to.
Dana killed his career.
Legacy seems fine. Fought for a long time entertaining. No crazy tragedy or career ending injuries.
Schoonover was somewhere doing the Joker dance when he saw the Pancakes Jackson debut in Bellator the first time.
You seem to have forgotten Rampage's greatest victory... he somehow made Fedor laugh. 🤔
Gut or no gut, he could knock me and most people in the comments out by looking at us. Respect.
Rampage's most memorable moment for me is him Knocking out that 🚪
It’s crazy- I was actually just thinking about Rampage Jackson. Dude was one of my favorites as a kid. I actually didn’t even know he was in Bellator, but after watching this…. I wish I could go back to that lmao
I remember when bellator would cut to a commercial in the middle of the fight 😄. The good ol days
Gave new meaning to the biggest star in MMA
I’m I the only one who remembers him in “Midnight Meatrain?”
Woah man I just found this channel and as an mma fan who is I'll be honest just started getting into this recently it's awesome to see everything and all the legends. I just love the legacy all these fighters leave behind and you're videos are awesome in helping me understand and get to know the sport more!
I’ve been a fan since the 90s, and I must say I’m envious of you… You get to experience and enjoy sooooooooo many legendary fights/moments/promotions for the first time!! You should watch the first few UFC events, which were a tournament format, if you haven’t already.. And all the Pride fights, the old days of Pancrase, StrikeForce, and one of my all time favs, WEC. Those are only a few of the old promotions I recommend (I think Pancrase is still active, but I recommend the early years of the promotion).
Also, welcome to the sport! What got you into it?
Also, you should check out MMA On Point here on TH-cam as well. Those guys and ItsNotCagefighting are my favorite mma channels, but there are some really good ones out there especially for mma news
@@thedooktroops5608 I envy you because you had seen all the legendary moments since the beginning of the century. I know about the history of mma but it's other thing to be a fan before the TUF boom and witnessed all that happened after that - PRIDE's rise and fall, all the mma promotions which met their destiny like PRIDE's, UFC growth of stardom and etc.
@@aleksanderb.5254 This is true, but also those days were rough for an mma fan, relatively speaking. Cards were few and far between, so were other fans to talk about it with lol. At one point, I even thought the glory days of mma were over, but man was I oh so gratefully mistaken! A good buddy of mine who I’ve been inviting over to watch fights just recently *really* started getting into it over the past year or two, and it’s been a fucking treat going back and watching all those fights/promotions from the old days with him lol, seems like he enjoyed it more 20 years after-the-fact than I did in the moment. I’m just glad that we all have access to everything now, both the people who were there in the early days and the people who became fans later on; we all get to live and re-live those moments!
He’s showing those buffets a rampage!
i love ur channel guys. talking about the grimier parts of mma such as rampage's shenanigans is very unique content!
That powerbomb is quiet possibly the best slam KO of all time
While I have to agree, gotta point out it was the headbutt on the way down that knocked out Arona. Still one of the best slams tho.
@@immie1709 no it wasn't. It was obviously the back of his head hitting the canvas from the slam that knocked him out 🤦🏼♂️
@@markus7166 If you slow it down you can see both their heads clash, when Rampage gets up he has a huge gash above his right eye with blood pouring from it from where his head made contact his Arona's mouthpiece/teeth, Didn't have that at any point in the match prior to the slam, it's an unintentional headbutt for sure but still a headbutt.
@@immie1709 their heads clashed after he was knocked out from the initial slam. Once his head hit the canvas he was KOed. Their heads didnt clash until right after his head hit the canvas.
He had a great mma career can wait to see more of him
Damn. I actually forgot how long of a history Rampage has had with Bellator.
Great channel, great editing, loved the A team music bit towards the end when he has his chain on. Plus the ending was spot on. 👍 👍
Love the content! Keep em coming. Happy new year! 🙏🏽
With his present day apathy, I go from being angry at him to being sad for him, because of how good he used to be - and how good he could remain, if only he could motivate himself 🥺
He still my all time fav fighter with the diaz bros. Underrated career no matter what he doin now. Seems to be just chasin paper which I get but hope he wins no matter what in life dude is a real one.
1:11 that slam on Ricardo Arona was insane.
Fatpage gives me extreme depression whenever I see a picture of him I hope he gets back into shape I hate to see an icon of his caliber showing up unready
He won't get into shape. He is just showing up for a paycheck
Well hello there
@@smittywerbenjaggermanjense1485 idl hes been lookin pretty jacked as of recent
He's gotten his hormonal imbalance in check, looks healthier these days.
He’s 43, hasn’t fought in over 2 years and hasn’t even got a contract… I don’t think you have have to worry about him showing up anywhere
Now do Rampage: The Pride Years
He had some bad losses and never won a Tournament or Belt but otherwise Rampage did pretty well there. His two wars with Wanderlei Silva are absolute classics, his slam KO of Ricardo Arona is iconic and he derailed Chuck Liddell's tenure in Pride with Dana White in attendance. When he entered the UFC, fans were very eager to see how he would perform and fortunately for him, achieved his peek on the biggest stage.
Rampage was my guy he was part of the reason I was into MMA
Lovely documentary 👏
Thumb nail pic is killer! The Belly Tour years! 😳🤣🤣😆
I'm a new subscriber, and love your channel thanks for the video!
Love your channel, truth with humour. You should upload about the failed viacom deal bellator made with rampage to make him into some multi-media star 😂
Another quality video from this channel to end the year. To more subscribers and engagements next year!
Needs to fight Darrill Schoonover in Minneapolis so we can have the Battle of the Twin Tiddies in the Twin Cities.
Rampage: they bellytor years. That's should be the title.
That Fedor fight was hard to watch. I have no idea what Rampage was thinking
He probably just wanted another paycheck and didn't feel like training that much is my guess lol
Yeah easy and money and probably being able to say he fought fedor
Rampage is the Bellyator champion
Lol tito trying make him flinch turning into a handshake
Second time Tito failed at that; he had also tried to make Chuck flinch before their first fight.
The Iceman didn't even blink, kept smiling, and flipped a flustered Tito the bird... good stuff.
Well done video
This channel is awesome 😎
loving the video game OST's in the background
Came here from reddit nice vid mate
Hampage vs Fedor had me thinking my body was ready for mma.
Fuck yes I've been asking for this one INC ur the goat
For a second i thought i was watching rummys corner lol
9:04 how can you dislike this man? lmao
the sonic adventure music is so good here
Great athlete topic to choose!
Dam I never thought hearing sonic adventure would make me so happy
I'm still wondering why your channel hasn't had its boom yet yk 🤔
Nice sonic music in the background😂😂
2:05 yeah, and who would have thought Glover Texeira would be our LHW champ? Not me for sure. I thought this would be another day at the office for Jan Blachowich in honesty.
Remember when they advertised him and Fedor with the picture of him pre pot belly?
Rampage vs Wanderlei 4 was a banger nonetheless
And 4 😂
@@danielcantu4035 I actually meant to write 4 but typed 3 by mistake
King mo: I heard your training with Kobayashi 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rampage: What the fuck are you talking about 😂
I love how you said the ë in fèdor
A True Legend of MMA. RAMPAGE.
rampage is fucking hilarious. that fedor joke killed me
Wow, Rampage looks like he was doing the same prefight training program as Ben Askren.
It wasn't an excellent win over Lyoto Machida. Rampage admitted, while still in the cage, that he lost the fight
It was actually an incorrect diagnosis and subsequent medication that caused the weight gain
That makes sense if it's true.
From rampage to buffet
Rampage thought Bellator had an Overweight Division.
Rampage never had a downfall he just got older and changed priorities
One of the greatest fighters of all time, and though he was known mostly for his slams, he actually was a far more skilled and devastating as a striker. definitely one of the top 10 - maybe even top 5 strikers in LHW history. In his prime his KO power rivalled the likes of prime Anthony Johnson and Franci Nganu. Sadly starting after his bs loss of the belt to Forrest, he became very one dimensional, where as prior to that he had great leg kicks and devastating knees. Alot of UFC fans are unaware of that fact, because they only really got to see the tail end of his prime and only saw a little bit of that well-rounded stand-p with Hendo. Sometime after that he transform into a guy just looking to get that KO punch. I also have to disagree with the assertion that his Bellator days were all terrible though. He looked pretty darn good against both M'Pumbu and King Mo. I mean - not that either were better than the likes of Matt Hamill or Ryan Bader, (though i'd argue not any worse than them), so it's not like Jackson was facing the caliber of opponents that he faced when he was in his prime from 2003 to 2009. Now I do think though, that after that win over King Mo, he did most certainly go down hill pretty far after that. He was after all north of 36 at that point, so it's not all that surprising
That last fight its convincingly obvious to assume he just showed up just wanting to pick up that paycheck since he knew it was his last fight on contract and didn't give a crap about his weight or condition. What a bum end
Great video!
Imagine if the wwe just scooped up rampage while he was in pride
Quinton “ you ate all the donuts “ Jackson
It was brutal when silva ko rampage in pride
Is that the sonic adventure game music playing in the background???
Do a video on Eddie Alvarez next for the UFC.
McGregor took his soul
Considering his next two fights were wars with Dustin and Gaethje I question that.
PS. I do have Alvarez: The UFC Years on my shortlist for future videos.
The only rampaging he’s been doing is at the Waffle House
Rampages final form Hampage, will always be my favorite Dragon 🐉 Ball Character.
He has shown he is one of the best in the world enough said . What he does after that does not really matter .
Rampage: the Peanut M&M years.
Training with Kobayash. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 (Me takes a breath) 🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣.
Rampage weirdly is top 3 in pride yellow cards
i was always a rampage fan though at times he talked too much. hes right about mma promoters being sleeze bags and training for fights can take a lot out of you. i hope he fights again. he was one of the best ever.
I would love to see Rampage in BKFC, as a big Rampage fan I dont want his last fight being flatlined by Fedor. Rampage wouldnt have to worry about getting out grappled, and I know Rampage still got bricks in his hands, would be a great way to send a legend.
If he would at least go down to 205 again maybe we could see him vs Rashad Evans. Not saying that fight would be good or anything, both guys are way past their prime. But to be honest, at this point in his career I see him losing more fights than winning. Maybe call it a career and thats it. Dont try to go out on a winning fight like BJ penn tried or Cerrone is trying now.
@@MrCris2021 I just think it would be more fun seeing Rampage throwing big power shots in Bare knuckle, it would be great to see him retire on a high like Chris Leben. I dont think Leben wanted this last memory of his MMA career being quitting on the stool againest Hall, it was a good send off.
You obviously don't know what being flatlined means 🤦🏼♂️😂
You didn't mention he was the first fighter to unify the belts. Being a UFC and Pride champion simultaneously that's a beter achievement than being cham champ.
Is that the Justice League Unlimited theme in the intro?
It's the UFC's original theme music from the SEG days.
Man I wish Rampage would actually get in shape and give the fans one more farewell fight with another legend like Machida or someone. The best pipe dream is Rampage vs Silva 5 why not lol gotta break the tie
Wanderlei says he’s been having memory problems the last few years. I loved the guy but for his own health I don’t want him fighting again.
What’s the background music at 0:51
I’ve got a full list of the songs used in the end credits.
Rampage "Cookie Monster" Jackson
@6:43 thats funny af
