Everybody’s getting super defensive on here today!!!!

LOL

the man has no reason to pick on people, i totaly believe him.
he says it in every little interview “Where my paper at!?” thats his mind set and ofc he loves MMA altho he disagrees about that sometimes lol. nah he aint made like that.

honestly i was rly suprised when i saw all that “chump murderer”
for a sec i honestly thought “ah ok he could be like this. tv face is different then reality” but im happy to read this

I know this has nothing to do with the post but I thought I would ask you guys anyways. I just bought a new HDTV and for the first time I am deciding to get digital cable or satelite. At the moment all I have is regular analog cable with the basic channels. I am looking to find out what channels I should pick up with my new signal. I know I wanna get The Fight Network,HD Net Fights. The only channel I have with my basic cable at the moment is Spike. Thanks if you can help!

I never believed that bs anyway , hes more of a fun guy ..

I guess he would be calling himself a chump seeing how the Axe Murderer murdered him twice. I like Rampage but he should really think about what he says sometimes. He also shouldn’t blame the fans for nitpicking at what he says because it sounds like to me it was the media that blew it out of proportion.

The fans never would have talked all that ##it about Rampage if he had not been talkin about Forrest. Forrest fans completely went nuts on Page last week, and Page is right, they do need to grow up. This guy jokes constantly, its just the way he is. He is not gonna change either, whether it causes the fans to hate him or not. I love the guy, and I personally can’t see why so many people hate on him all the time. No difference, all you Forrest fans that hate on Rampage so bad won’t be talkin so loudly when he gets KTFO.

wow, a pro athelete being quoted out of context, must be a first!

forrest is the new lightheavyweight champion, rampage is dead

LOL!!! Riiiight…Forrest is cool, but come on be real…Rampage SHOULD win this fight and by KO or TKO…He’s too powerfull of a striker and hes got great strength…besides, when was the last time you saw Rampage get submitted? Sakaraba?? I’m not sure but I bet it was a loooong time ago…

I would like to see Jardine/Rampage…talk about an interesting fight.

for the record, the link said: Rampage Jackson: Wanderlei Silva is the “Chump Murderer’. I just assumed he was still salty balls about being KOd twice. thats all i’m saying. lol @ nitpickers..

Hey page…it kinda sounds like alot of people on this blog site…take somthing outta nothing and running with it!!!

Wow, do you even watch MMA? Rampage is gonna be champ for a long time just in case you haven’t heard.

Anything you do worth while people are going to hate on you for it. Thats because most people are worthless. So keep it up haters, you’re just making a statement about yourselves.

He’ll beat Forrest but he’s going to get destroyed by Machida when the time comes.

did rampage really need to explain himself? whether its trash-talkin or just messin around, its all part of his personality. people who get personally offended (or just plain worked up) by fighters’ comments about other fighters are…well…the kind of people who need to get a life (in my humble opinion). trash-talkin is part of the sport, personalities are part the sport (e.g. tito, page, etc.), hyping up fights is part of the sport. but all of them take a back-seat to ‘the fight’. and really, thats all that matters right? i mean, we dont watch MMA to see who the best smack-talker is…or who this weeks ‘bad guy’ or ‘villain’ is. so all this talk is just that…talk. rampage is just being himself, theres no need need to defend himself from the ‘fans’.

This is all fight Hype. You take two of the most liked fighters in the game, who have nothing against each other. Throw a few words into the mix and boom, now you have a no love loss heated battle ahead. It’s all marketing.

GSP was all friendly friendly with Serra. Serra banged him out and now GSP is acting like Serra did something wrong. It’s all fight hype and the fans that get caught up in it, that’s all part of what the hype is trying to accomplish. They’ll all be buying PPV’s, so the UFC is like, Good job Rampage. Dana’s saying Cha Ching once again.

it won’t be forrest but i don’t see too many fighters holding the belt for long periods of time with all the top talent in that devision unless there on tuf.

Rampage could tell me to f… off and I’d still be a fan. The guy has a good smack talk for MMA ala muhammad ali in which he can back it up, the sport does need ppl like him as he said. I wasn’t thrilled when he supposedly sad “chump murderer” but he didn’t lose any respect from me as a fan (just made me think that he was really referring to himself as a chump).

And TBH, I don’t consider fighters trash talking each other “MMA News.”

Im starting to not like rampage as much.. every interview he does all he is talking about is getting paid.. he actually said he dont really care about the sport he just wants his paper.. I hope forrest kicks his ass!

Rampage is great! Dig his attitude.

Regarding how long Rampage will be champ, that’s hard to say. Nobody has a crystal ball. I’d guess that he will beat Forrest, then he will once again face Liddell. Here’s hoping that fight will be at least as interesting as Rampage vs. Liddell I.

DirecTv HD package has HDnet in it. Also if you get Total Choice Plus you get Versus (for the WEC). I don’t know where to get TFN.

prediction- Tomorrow, 10 people will say Fedor signed with the UFC and think they are clever.

I wouldn’t be surprised if rampage spoke such things, but as with everything from his mouth, they must be taken with a grain of salt and a dose of laughter.

The real point that has been neglected, however, is that the Rampage Wanderlei demolished is not the Rampage fighting today. He’s clearly turned a page in his training and is a much better fighter now than he ever was in the PRIDE era.

Lets go forrest!!!!! Maybe my Unopened Forest Griffin Mickeys Tall boy will actually become a collectors item….and not just 24 oz of cheap beer

good job rampage! theres a lot of people on mma boards and yes some of them are plain dumb

On Rogers Digital, The Fight Network is included in their $8/month Sports package. It’s another $6/month to get the HD specialty channels which includes HDNet and ShowtimeHD. Unfortunately, we still can’t get VERSUS on cable, some satellite providers may carry it.

Well said.

Rampage will lose. Just saw the fight he got murdered by Wanderlei Silva with the big knee to the face. He fell so badly there it was unbelievable. When Machidas time comes he will beat Rampage too. There are better fighter than him in that division.

I can’t wait for Rampage to break that glass jam that Forrest has…Forrest is just like Chucky..he has a title shot he don’t deserve and sucks up (literally) to Dana White to get what he wants…Rampage is going to do the same thing to Over rated Forrest as he did to Over rated Chucky…make him go to sleep…Night Night Forrest Weakchin!

Hector Ramirez..UFC 72.

Wow..Rampage’s catching feelings…lol didn’t know he could be this sensitive.

i thought it was pretty weak of him to even bring it up, he talks alot of trash and i don’t take it to seriously i know he is just talking but for him to get so upset about other people talking shit get over it and don’t bring it up unless your the type that does not talk shit yourself.

Not by a longshot.

Rampage talks so much, he’s bound to say a few offensive things now n’ again. His follow-up comments weren’t much better. How could Wanderlei or Forrest not take those comments as offensive?

I’m a little confused. When he was on the Opie and Anthony Show, Rampage was quoted as calling Silva the “Chump Murderer.”

[quote comment=”395684″]They call him “The Axe Murder” because he destroys people in his fights. They threw him chumps and he murdered them. Look at his record of guys he fought. This guy is “The Chump Murderer”. I speak my mind around him and he looks at me all crazy like I shouldn’t be saying that.[/quote]

Now maybe this was misquoted, but that’s what was run and I have a feeling it was accurate.

don’t get me wrong, I never mind hearing Rampage speak his mind, so I’m definitely not hating.

I only point it out because, at the same time, Rampage should stick by what he said. Maybe he forgot he said it, but I think he still said it. Stick to those guns, ‘Page.

IMO, Rampage can say whatever the hell he wants. he is the best fighter at 205 lbs in the entire world! So he is always RIGHT!!!

IMO Rampage could do no wrong!

exactly, page wasn’t talking about today, he was talking about the times in pride when he supposedly called wandy the “chump murderer”. but then again he said he didn’t say those things but he did say he called wandy’s adversaries “chumps”. If he really believed that, he was calling himself a chump.

I agree that today a fight between the two might be different, not only because it’s a cage but also because of the changes in camp. although I agree that page is with a much better camp, wandy has gone to extreme couture and that can also help him out in a cage (more than it would to keep trainning with CB). I hope the fight happens again in the future, I wouldn’t count wandy out.

Who wouldn’t love to see this fight happen? Too bad rampage is on a shelf for TUF and Wanderlei, with 3 straight losses, is not close to being a top contender. Let’s hope the forces of the universe align and we get to see the newer versions of these great fighters clash in a cage.

Rampage has an iron chin and a right hook from hell. He has already shown that he doesn’t defend his title much so I see him with the belt for at least 3 more years. If he did it for the money then he would defend his belt more IMO. The more you fight the more money you make and that is why Chuck is so rich. I would like to see him defend his title two to three times a year like Chuck, then he can see he is about his money.

Yeah, he could potentially coach the next three seasons of TUF and only have to defend his title 3 times in the next three years.

End of the day who actually cares what is said before the fight, this is great. Basically, it gives the fight more exposure and gives Forrest an opportunity to prove him wrong. I can not wait for this match up.

Dam!!! I hate this guy, he says for people to grow up when he can’t even sit down and have a serious interview, always turning to the camera, saying something stupid, or talking about paper. He’s just mad that Forrest, Wanderlei, and definetly Chuck Liddell, have such huge fan followings. So who really needs to grow up?

I can’t believe so many people freak out about good ol’ trash talking. keep it up rampage

Who is Rampage kidding saying that Wanderlei has fought chumps? His fight record reads like a who’s who of the pride fighting championships. And does he consider himself a chump? Because after all we’ve all senn the clip of Quentin getting knocked out through the ropes by the ‘chump murderer’. One of the nastiest knockouts I’ve seen…. he didn’t llok like a chump that night.

Brass tax is this: Quentin Jackson owns the UFC belt for one reason… he has Liddell’s number. I won’t be the least bit surprised if Forrest ‘glass jaw’ Whitaker, or whatever he called him, wins thier upcoming fight. Let’s not forget that Griffin just whooped the last man to beat Rampage.

Oh, by the way… I have XM radio and listen to Opie and Anthony religiously. I heard the interview, and he definitely calls the man who knocked him out twice the “chump murderer”. Maybe all those stomps to the head in the Rua fight gave him some brain damage.

[quote comment=”395881″]I can’t believe so many people freak out about good ol’ trash talking. keep it up rampage[/quote]

I second that. It’s hard to take it seriously if Rampage trash talks, he’s just so dang funny. He cracks me up, I love him. And from what I’ve seen anyway, he always seems very respectful of other fighters.

rampage is a hood shit talkin punk i hope forest knocks his teeth out

this saying needs to be put to rest, i feel like i lost 50 more IQ for reading it for the 10th gazillion time.
hey 1998 called they want their saying back……………….

Rampage SMASH!!

He’ll beat down anyone the UFC puts in front oh him, including Wandy and Shogun.

Rampage vs. Forrest, that’s what’s happening.

HERE!!! this is what he was quoted saying int he interview a few pages back!!!!

“I think that if I fought Wanderlei Silva in the UFC I would have beat him. Wanderlei was the Chuck Liddell of Pride. If you were beating Wanderlei on the ground, the referee’s would stand you right up. It happened to me. It happened to other fighters that fought him…. Me and Silva don’t even talk to each other. Silva is the type of guy that thinks everyone should be afraid of him. The way I react around him is different. I am not afraid of Wanderlei Silva. They call him “The Axe Murder’ because he destroys people in his fights. They threw him chumps and he murdered them. Look at his record of guys he fought. This guy is “The Chump Murderer.’ I speak my mind around him and he looks at me all crazy like I shouldn’t be saying that. I think some of the referees took payoffs in Pride. In Japan, I promise you something was up.”

the proof is in the pen ppl!

[quote post=”5591″]Let’s not forget that Griffin just whooped the last man to beat Rampage.[/quote]

And Chuck clearly beat the second last man to beat Rampage, so what the hell’s your point?

Besides, all the Pride guys that had successfully used stomps and soccer kicks aren’t doing so well in the UFC.

Rampage would beat Shogun and Wandy in the octagon.

Of course Rampage is going to retract his statements, he didnt figure his shit talk of silva would get so much publicity.

Now hes taking it back trying to explain himself because hes scared of wanderlie he probably wakes up at 254am with nightmares of silvas knee impacting his skull.

The last thing quinton wants to do is piss off silva

He is a Professional. He should understand that when you are a champion and you talk, its going to get published. People are going to take his words as they hear them. I personally like the trash talk, but for him to say he lost respect in the fans is wrong. I hope Forrest “WeakChin” sends his head into the 5th row!!

[quote comment=”395448″]And TBH, I don’t consider fighters trash talking each other “MMA News.”[/quote]
I do…It makes the fight more interesting when it is genuine, makes it a little bit more dramatic

my thoughts on trash talk are this, if you as a fighter get intimidated by it you chose the wrong profession. also nothing makes a fighter or any athlete look like more of a tool then flapping their jaw before a fight/game and then getting their ass wooped. is it good for the fans and the hype factor?? i suppose for some fans it is, i for one don’t pay much mind to it, i would watch WWE if that was my thing.
