Quinton “Rampage” Jackson doesn’t stand a chance in the Octagon with light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones.
Jackson was once the light heavyweight champion, but after a decade of fighting, he is certainly past his prime and can’t compete with Jones, who is one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the UFC.
Jackson is known as a big hitter. He has a strong punch and can level you at any point. The only problem for him is that he is going against a much faster, younger opponent that just happens to have a longer reach.
Jones is dominant in nearly every facet you can think of at this point in his career.
He has yet to be challenged, mainly because he is so much better than the other fighters.
Jackson failed to knock out Keith Jardine and Matt Hamill recently, both of whom have been destroyed since then. He also lost to both Forrest Griffin and Rashad Evans—and didn’t exactly impress anyone in those bouts.
He simply has lost a step and doesn’t have the explosive power that he once had.
He was a great fighter and should be respected as a great fighter, but the simple fact is that he stands no chance of taking out Jones.
This isn’t saying that Jones is unbeatable—he isn’t—but Jackson isn’t the boxer to do it. He just hasn’t proven over the past few years that he has it in him.
Jones will win, and he should win in convincing fashion.

Quinton “Rampage” Jackson tweeted today that he revealed the first name, “Leonard” as the “spy” who was filtering information on his camp at MusclePharm to Jon Jones‘ team: And in rather coinicidental news, an Executive.
Quinton “Rampage” Jackson tweeted today that he revealed the first name, “Leonard” as the “spy” who was filtering information on his camp at MusclePharm to Jon Jones‘ team:
And in rather coinicidental news, an Executive Vice President of MusclePharm named, Leonard Armenta has recently (as of September 16th) resigned from his position with the supplemental company whose new training facility housed Jackson during his UFC 135 training camp. Could this serve as proof to Jackson’s accusations or is it one misfortunate misunderstanding? Jon Jones tweeted his regards to the employee who was fired due to “Rampage[‘]s paranoia.”
Fightline provides us with the terms of Armenta’s resignation citing that a filing with Securities and Exchange Commission shows: “the resignation was not a result of any disagreements with the company on any matters relating to the operations, polices or practices of MusclePharm.”
We’re sure there is more to come surrounding “spy gate” and we’re even more positive that we’re going to get an amazing showdown out of this thing come tomorrow night! So really, whether this stuff is true or not, it’s totally win-win for us! Bet you those pay-per-view buys go through the roof!
