Rampage Jackson

Rampage Jackson: In the main event at Ultimate Fighting Championship 130 in Las Vegas, there was another victory and another excuse by former light-heavyweight champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson after his win over Matt “The Hammer” Hamill. In the bout, Rampage clearly won all three rounds, but his performance was average at best."I was a 5 out of 10 (on a scale)," Jackson said after his bout. Jackson also revealed he fought with a fractured hand. Once again Jackson's bark was bigger than his bite.

With Jackson revealing his injury the decision to fight Jones next my not be in the cards for him.
In the first round, Hamill started with leg kicks. He was taking a page from Forrest Griffin, who took Rampage's title after repeatedly leg-kicking him for five rounds.
