Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is finally returning to Japan and fighting in what could be considered home when talking about his MMA career.
It is only fitting that he is on the card, and when he does finish the fight against Ryan Bader at UFC 144, he needs to call it a career. Jackson is a lock for the UFC Hall of Fame and has had an incredible career.
He was able to unify the Pride and UFC title when he beat Dan Henderson and knocked out Chuck Liddell in the UFC in their rematch.
Still, he isn’t the fighter he once was, and while he is still in his physical prime there are several factors which point to this being the perfect time for him to bow out.
