UFC 114 Live
Quinton "Rampage" Jackson may perhaps be back below the Ultimate Fighting Championship's umbrella with a six-battle option, but he's however unhappy with the way the company treats him. Fighters Only magazine lately spoke to the light-heavyweight previous champion.
My manager desired me to function points out and goods like that. It's still tough dealing with the UFC now. If I experienced my way, I nevertheless would be retired and undertaking my issue.
I want to encourage my individual present. I want to be like (Oscar) De La Hoya (who has his individual combat campaign organization, Golden Boy Promotions). I don't have to have the UFC banner. I don't have to have the way they don't want you to make money. They end your afterparties or your sponsors. Man, permit us make dollars. ...
The UFC ain't did it with just their name. Like I mentioned prior to... You fit two UFC symbols in the cage, see how several pay-per-views they get. Permit the two UFC symbols combat each other.
But individuals don't know. Persons don't fully grasp. It's not all about your identify, the UFC. It's about the characters that's in it. It's about the men and women that's inside the Octagon. There's a complete package deal offer; they don't recognize.
They can maintain creating new fighters and goods like that, but some individuals can't be emulated. ...





I don't care if the UFC don't like what I say or not. For decades, I fought in UFC and didn't agree with a whole lot of stuff and I kept my mouth shut. I didn't say practically nothing. ... It's difficult to retain your mouth shut when folks retain stepping on you. I can only consider so a great deal.
I still say the UFC has a great deal of excellent features and stuff like that. ... (But) appropriate aside, we attempted to function on our relationship and appropriate apart they messed issues up. Currently I'm not pleased with them once again.
Other tidbits: The losses to Mauricio "Shogun" Rua and Forrest Griffin nevertheless "haunt" Jackson; he views UFC 114 opponent Rashad Evans as minor far more than a warm-up for rematches with Rua and Griffin; coaching The Best Fighter ends up costing Jackson funds because he spends so very much money in Las Vegas clubs.

The promotion has provided Jackson a fairly extended leash in the past. UFC President Dana White bailed him out of prison and kept him on the roster soon after the previous champion led police on a chase via the streets of Long Beach, Calif. He at some point pleaded guilty to a felony and misdemeanor, which seems far much more significant than, say, the behavior that led to the termination of Paul Daley's UFC contract.
