A motivated Quinton “Rampage” Jackson looks to make the most of his opportunity when he challenges UFC Light Heavyweight champion Jon Jones at UFC 135.
“Rampage” addressed his fans in a video blog on YouTube and updated them on his training regimen. Jackson, who has relocated his training camp to Denver, Colo. in preparation for the bout, said he will be ready to face Jones and isn’t intimidated by his recent success.
“This guy has never been tested, never been hit. I ain’t worried about his height, his reach, I ain’t worried about none of that,” Jackson said.
After losing a unanimous decision to Rashad Evans at UFC 114 last year, Jackson has rebounded with two straight wins over Lyoto Machida and Matt Hamill. Although he has been criticized for his recent performances, Jackson remains confident in his skills while his fans continue to support him ahead of his title bout.
Unfortunately for Jones, Jackson might just be the toughest opponent yet. Unlike his previous opponent, Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, Jackson will enter the bout much healthier and determined to defeat the 23-year-old. His strong boxing skills could serve as a potential problem, as well as his strong wrestling background.
Entering the bout with confidence, motivation and no lingering injuries, Jackson should test the champion and make it a competitive bout. If we take his word for it, fans might just see the best Quinton Jackson in recent memory.
