I think it is called Crazy Monkey Defense. Rampage notably used it in Pride against Wanderlei in their second fight. A guy I knew pointed it out when the fight was happening. I never heard of it, until that moment. Edit: The guy who told me trained in it, so he immediately recognized it.

@@joco6851 it was definitely a bit to far but if you obviously knew the history between the two I can understand how his adrenaline took over in the finish here
One of the cleanest and iconic 1 punch knockouts in UFC history. It's up there with Rashad's right hook against Chuck Liddell and Dan Hendo's H-bomb on Bisping.
He definitely was but he would leave himself open whenever he was in the pocket when he chose not to clinch and use his Muay Thai. He always put on exciting fights but this kind of KO was bound to happen to him eventually
The feud between Jackson and Silva was a really interesting storyline. Silva earned the honor in PRIDE, while Jackson earned the honor in the UFC. 2 wins, 2 losses, it was a great match.
Boxing guy here, casual UFC fan. Rampage was the first UFC fighter to get me mildly intrigued in the UFC. These guy’s and their boxing were just saw crude though. Anyway, I’ve literally never seen a Wanderlei fight highlight that didn’t end like this? How was guy so popular if he was so awful at fighting?
The way Rampage blocked those shots and countered was perfect. I've literally seen that exchange in countless movies where the hero blocks two shots just like that and follows up with a hook. I've never seen it in real life though 😲 I just realized he blocked a third punch while knocking Silva out. What a fucking BEAST!!! This has to be some of the best defense and counters I've ever seen. I feel like you only see stuff like this in boxing.
If you watch it at .25x speed, you can clearly see how fast rampage's reaction time is. Example: at around 3:35 onward, the moment wandy moves his left foot to throw a jab, rampage immediately reacts and throws his own jab even before wandy could land anything. As well as the finishing sequence, rampage really telegraphed all of wandy's hooks and perfectly timed his own left hook to drop wandy. Rampage had quick reaction times, man.
This is when I started watching the UFC. What a time to find it. There was just something about the "sponsor" era of the sport. There were just so many names and icons fighting at this time in that light heavyweight division. There was also something about the underdog nature of the sport at this time that made it special. I miss these days.
For reals I miss going to Vegas and going to the UFC store and seeing all the different fighters gear. All had their own brand with the sponsors like Bad Boy, American Fighter, Hayabusa. Now I bet it's all Reebok😔
Everybody always talks about Francis, Rumble, etc, but most forget about Rampage. When he was motivated and trained right, he could throw hysterically destructive hooks and uppercuts. His unique guard was perfect for mma and streetfights. Block with the elbow parallel with the nose and slightly angle off with the opponents incomin blow. Magnificent. I'm surprised more mma fighters haven't emulated Rampages guard when in boxin range instead of still tryna block with the small glove which is nowhere near as effective.
I completely agree man. Before his temporary "retirement" to film the A-Team movie Rampage had some great hands and power. He's definitely under appreciated
What fucked Wanderlei up was he was too tough and too game fought heavyweight Hunt, Prime CroCop, and Henderson those knockouts turned him towards decline
This was a decent fight, but their first two fights were better. They were younger, in their physical prime, more savage, and hungrier for the win. It was unbelievable when Silva knocked Rampage right out of the ring.
After getting pumbled up and bashed out twice he seen his chance for revenge come real after watching Silvia get pounded flat twice he knew he could catch him with the power and pounded him when he was already unconscious twice for the two losses and once for third before the ref finally breaks it up then has the nerve to even check on him anit that special
Or convenient timing, as Wanderlei lost 5 fights and won 5 fights by the time they fought for the 3rd time, basically trading wins and losses up until that point. Sounds like Rampage pulled a Money Mayweather and got him when the time was best for him to win.
@@ubermikesocal Doesn't matter, its still sweet revenge for Rampage. Wandy could easily have denied Rampage the opportunity of revenge by saying "I finished this A-hole twice, I don't need to fight him again". Plus, prime Rampage Jackson in the cage beats the best version of Wanderlei Silva. He hits too hard, his boxing is too crisp and there's always the wrestling to fall back on if he gets into trouble.
@@ubermikesocal you have no idea what you’re talking about first of all the only reason he lost to him in pride is because of the stupid yellow card rule which made them stand up when he was beating Vanderlei. second of all he had to fight him 45 minutes after beating a prime Chuck Liddell…so don’t talk about wins losses fair unfair he worked that ass plain and simple

Watch Wanderlei Silva's "Vale Tudo" and "Pride" fights, he was viscous early on in his career. By the time he got to the UFC he was past his prime.

By the time he started facing actual strikers he was past his prime

Silvia was left twitching on the mat!💯
If only Rampage took training more seriously, he would have been a god.
His fight against fedor was embarrassing. He looked like a 300 power lifter who ate Big Macs for pre workout.
@@dominickd16 Rampage himself said that it was embarrassing
@@Seek_Solitude yeah I remember him smiling back stage and then he later deleted the video. Maybe he threw the fight cause Russia paid him good.
@@dominickd16 Rampage basically stopped caring at that point. He became a meme after that fight; 'Hampage Snackson' 😂
@@dominickd16 lmao lmao
Those punches was so hard Silvia’s shorts was twitching while he was sleeping 😂😂
Those few extra ground strikes were totally necessary and satisfying
Here from JRE lol 😝
Me too 😂
Lost 2 times in Pride but gets his redemption by winning 2 fights against Wanderlei in the UFC same thing with Izzy and Alex Pierrea
Wanderlei was always moving and amped up during stare downs especially when he juiced
Sheesh! Rampage savored that one.
Ref had to tell him to stop 😂 Mf too big
Wanderlei Silva, my favorite fighter of all time. an inspiration to so many fighters. Even for Chris' Leben after he defeated him
4:14 rampage punched him 3x after he was out cold lmao and dumb goldberg talkin about great show of class 😂😂😂😂😂
Cry me a river
No dolly throwing at the bus, no jerry springer at weight in, no drama simply the best thing to ever happened to ufc when these legends were around
I ALWAYS loved RAMPAGE ! Bringing the HEAT !
That left hook… Sheeesh! he hit him sooooooo hard, he was out before he hit the mat
Wow, I have never seen someone land that many shots after the ref stopped it. He was clearly mad at Silva. He was holding the ref back.
Prime wanderlei Silva is the greatest of all time..he is a warrior 👍♥️ living legend ♥️
The punches after the KO are absolutely intoxicating to witness.
This was my childhood, love this era and I was into Pride 2005-2007.
That was a great knockout by Rampage. Blocked the punches perfectly, weaved, threw that heavy 🪨 left hook and folded him. Then rained down a couple hammer fists for good luck. I'll never forget how much of a beast Rampage was, especially in Pride.
Throws wild overhand* joe “his technical boxing has greatly improved”
Out cold. Rampage was one of my favorite fighters. So entertaining
5:12 it’s like trying to take your kid home from the park when they’re with there friends 😂
those blocks that led to the KO were sick
