Rampage Jackson is not having a good week. Last Saturday night he lost his UFC (http://wwtdd.com/#) light heavyweight title to Forrest Griffin, and just moments ago the scene above played out, after police stopped him as a suspect in a hit and run. TMZ says… (http://www.tmz.com/2008/07/15/cops-say-jackson-went-on-rampage/)

Law enforcement sources tell us, Rampage was in a car crash near Newport Beach (that's near Laguna Beach in the O.C.) and then split the scene. Cops gave chase and eventually caught up and charged him with felony hit and run and felony evading arrest.


Rampage is maybe the most charismatic and likeable athlete to come around since Barkley, but he’s no criminal mastermind. He committed a hit and run in a truck with his name and picture (http://wwtdd.com/#) on the side. “Can you describe the vehicle that hit you, sir?” “Yes, imagine if Rampage Jackson was a truck.”

This could not have happened at a worse time I feel. The sport is FINALLY getting some legit pub. and Jackson loses his shit.

Wonderful.

If Rampage was that scared of potentially facing Anderson Silva, he could've just gone up in weight. Didn't really need to hide from him in prison. Seems a little excessive to me.

[M Karver]

hahahha OF COURSE you would post this.

[Mr. Long]

It got a zing from JRich, no reason to not post it here too.

[M Karver]

Well funny as it maybe its still something of a bizzare story.

I mean if you see the photo he has a GIANT picture of himself on the side of his truck...how could you think "IM GOING TO GET AWAY FROM THIS AND NO ONE WILL KNOW!"

[Mr. Long]

Cop: Sir, did you happen to get the license plate number of the man that hit you?

Man: That won't be necessary.

For the record, I think his plate number was XJGINTPITUROMYSLF. I could be wrong though, that may be over 7 characters.

Late yesterday afternoon, UFC (http://wwtdd.com/#) superstar Quentin "Rampage" Jackson was arrested for his part in a s suspected hit and run in Newport Beach, California. Details were scarce except for that kick ass picture above, but now TMZ has some details.

Rampage was on the 55 Freeway in the O.C., hit two cars and got off the freeway. The chase was on.
Rampage then began driving on the center divider. But it gets worse. According to the police report, Jackson then drove on the sidewalk, "causing pedestrians to flee for their lives." He started driving the wrong way on a crowded street, colliding with yet another car in an intersection. As he continued on, running several red lights, his tire disintegrated and he began driving on the rim.
Rampage eventually got to the exclusive Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, where he again drove on the sidewalk, "causing pedestrians to flee in terror."
Eventually, his car came to a stop and he was taken into custody at gunpoint. Cops took him to the Orange County Jail, but they determined he was "medically unfit" to be booked. Cops won't say if he was high.


It would be disappointing if Rampage did some weed and then went and drove his monster truck around, but in his defense, that shit sounds fun.

*ahem*

GAWDFUCKINGDAMNIT RAMPAGE.

So he is going to get shit canned right?

[Mr. Long]

Looks like Affliction or EXC just got their main draw.

On the bright side, Rampage could now gain a pound and potentially fight Kimbo in EXC or Fedor in Affliction.

[M Karver]

This is so dissapointing. The sport REALLY didnt need this.

[Mr. Long]

I honestly don't think it's going to hurt MMA that badly.

It's obviously going to hurt Rampage's career, but I don't think it's going to hurt MMA as whole.

When Pacman did whatever he did, did it hurt the entire sport of football?

[M Karver]

Point taken but the NFL has been WELL established in the world and the US as a whole.

MMA is desperately trying to be known as a SPORT now. This wont help matters.

Remember MMA = Dog Fighter according to ESPN in the last 365 days.

[Mr. Long]

These are all valid points, but...
