UFC 144 – Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson Says Injury Played Bigger Role In Loss, Still Wants To Fight

A humble Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson talks about his UFC 144 co-main event loss to Ryan Bader from the Saitama Super Arena in Japan. During his post fight interview with MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani, Jackson says a knee injury suffered in training played a bigger role in his performance than he was letting on. ‘Rampage’ says even his doctor told him not to fight but the former champ didn’t want to disappoint his fans. He still wants to keep competing after suffering the first two straight losses of his career, and would like a “tune up” fight next.
