Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is one of the most fierce competitors to ever step foot inside an octagon or ring, and he is one of the few fighters that lives up to his nickname. The former UFC champion is gearing up for another clash with “King Mo” Muhammed Lawal at Bellator 175 and it appears as if “Rampage” has not calmed down in training at all!
Antonio McKee recently sat down with Champions and shared a story about how “Rampage” got cut with a spinning backfist in training and proceeded to throw the sparring partner out of the octagon:
“Rampage is Rampage. I remember one time we were sparring, and [his partner] throws a spinning backfist that cuts Rampage’s eye open. It took four coaches to control Rampage. Rampage literally threw this kid out of the Octagon, from the floor over the top. The kid took off and never came back to camp. Rampage calmed down and started howling like a wolf and all that weird stuff. That’s probably the craziest thing I can remember. It was me, Kongo, his coach and another coach holding him, and he threw us off like we were flies.”
