Former UFC champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson believes UFC Lightweight Champion Conor McGregor is a legend after his fight with Floyd “Money” Mayweather.
On Monday, Jackson sent out a message towards McGregor on his Instagram. Jackson showed respect to both McGregor and Mayweather. He also said he wants to see the two fight again but in an MMA fight.
“As a MMA fighter I have to say how impressed I am with the way Conor showed heart in his fight this weekend,” Jackson wrote.
“I respect Floyd and boxing, in my opinion this money fight was good for both sports and for the economy of everybody that was involved….. but saying that I’d happily pay another (100) bucks to watch them fight in MMA. Honestly I’m a bit jelly of the whole thing cause I always wanted to have a boxing match when I was in my prime but I’m no hater so respect for all you’ve done in this sport.”
Even though Mayweather defeated McGregor by TKO in the 10th round of their fight, McGregor managed to win some of the early rounds and showed a lot of heart and skills throughout their fight.
