Rampage Is ‘Not Excited’ About Hamill Match-Up


(You’re joking, right?He used a fake penis for his urine test? Doesn’t that make him gay?)

Quinton “Rampage” Jackson was on MMAFighting’s The MMA Hour yesterday and he expressed his distaste with being paired up with a replacement Matt Hamill at UFC 130 when  his original opponent Thiago Silva was forced off the card after being suspended for falsifying a urine test to hide steroid use.

“Thiago Silva is the type of guy I would love to fight because he has great stand up and he comes to fight most of the time, so I was looking forward to fighting a guy like that,” Jackson explained. “Matt Hamill wasn’t on my radar at all. I wasn’t excited at all. But then again, not a whole lot gets me excited.”

Hammil has been quoted as saying he plans on breaking the former UFC light heavyweight champion’s will, and in the video above, besides eating Greek twice a week, he says that he plans to do so on the feet.

Jackson scoffed at the notion.

“He’s just got to jive himself up so he actually thinks he can stay with me. If you’ve seen my fights over history, I don’t think my will gets broken too often for anybody to even say that. Matt Hamill is a great wrestler and stuff like that, but I’ve got more experience than him and I’ve fought a lot tougher people than he’s fought,” he pointed out. “He’s got a while to go before he can say he can break anybody’s will.”

He went on to tell host Ariel Helwani that he will be the one deciding the outcome of the bout and that he will do so in emphatic fashion.

“I just know that I plan to go out there and be very aggressive and very exciting,” he said. “That’s all I know.”
