Despite Quinton Jackson rivalry, UFC 114 headliner Rashad Evans won’t fight angry

Rashad Evans has talked a mountain of trash heading into his headliner with Quinton “Rampage” Jackson at UFC 114, and he’s doing his best not to let it get in the way of the fight.

Especially since Jackson, who shared a stint with Evans as a coach on “The Ultimate Fighter 10,” has caught him several times in verbal exchanges over the past 10 months.

But Evans, a former light heavyweight champion, is well aware that anger could derail his chance to finish the long-running argument on May 29.
