Quinton “Rampage” Jackson looks to add the final touches to the preparation for his title bout against Jon Jones this Saturday night at UFC 135

Jackson, who previously held the light heavyweight title in 2007, is motivated to reclaim the belt and has rededicated himself to training and the grueling schedule that comes along with the sport—something he has voiced his displeasure at in the past. 

MMA Heat was given exclusive access to one of Jackson’s training sessions at the MusclePharm facility in Denver, where he has relocated his training camp for the last 12 weeks. He participated in a couple of exercises and looks to be in great physical condition heading into his bout with Jones. 

Jackson captured the light heavyweight title after defeating Chuck Liddell in 2007, and then went on to unify the UFC and PRIDE light heavyweight crown against Dan Henderson that same year.

Jackson would lose the belt the following year to Forrest Griffin at UFC 86. Since then, Jackson has gone 4-1 in his last five bouts, with his only loss coming to Rashad Evans at UFC 114.

UFC 135 is live this weekend, from the Pepsi Center in Denver.
