Rampage se retira??

“I’ve just found out myself. Listen, “Rampage” first and foremost has been a friend of ours and we really like “Rampage” and I’m not gonna get into the battle of who’s done who for what and all that stuff. You know, we’ve done a lot for him and he’s got in there and fought. The guys come in here their fighters, that’s what they do, their fighters. We give them fights and they fight, they make money and we make money. That’s the way it works, but believe me, if you think this is the first time I’ve dealt with people who think they want to become actors and think they are going to make millions and millions of dollars off making movies and acting and because I got so pissed off about him pulling out of the fight with Rashad, I’m speaking my mind. He thinks I’m trying to ruin his movie career, it’s crazy.”

“Listen, I have nothing bad to say about “Rampage”, he’s a grown man. If he decides he want to walk away from guaranteed, good money right now, money he’ll never have the opportunity to make for the rest of his life, because he wants to go make movies, he’s a grown man, he can do whatever he wants to do. I’ve talked to “Rampage” as a friend and tried to talk him out of making a bad decision and he doesn’t think it is. He thinks he’s gonna have a movie career, but there’s been so many fighters over the years that thought they were gonna have movie careers.”

“I didn’t, after he and I made up, those stories were hitting. I didn’t say anything bad about him doing the movie other than that I thought it was a bad idea, because I do think it’s a bad idea. And that’s not true about Rashad, I offered him the Rashad fight and yes I talked him into the Rashad fight the first time then I tried to get Rashad and Rashad turned the fight down and that was when we made the Keith Jardine fight.”

“And I mean that’s what I do, I call these guys and offer them fights. “Rampage” Jackson told me he wasn’t interested in the belt, the belt caused him too many problems. It wasn’t like he was going after Machida because he wanted to belt, he didn’t want the belt. He said the belt brought too many problems into his life, he just wants to fight and make money and feed his family, is exactly what he told me.”

“Anybody with half a brain and some common sense … “Rampage” does The Ultimate Fighter, a season that turns out phenomenal. All he’s been telling me since he got into the UFC is that he wants to fight in Memphis in front of his home town. We make the fight in Memphis, then he pulls out of the fight, and is going to do a movie instead because it has so much sentimental value to him. Come on man. He’s a fighter that’s what he does for a living. And now I’m going through all this crap again where I got another fighter going ‘You know what, this isn’t what I want to do with the rest of my life. I want to make movies, I want to be a movie star, this is my second career,’ like I haven’t see this one before.”

“We’ve got no problems, we’re in the fight business, we make fights that’s what we do. There’s always guys that are injured, guys that have conflicting dates. Things that are going to pop up, movie roles. I say this every day, every interview I ever do. I’ve been saying this for years. Every morning when I get out of bed, there’s one thing that I’m guaranteed, that something’s going to happen today. It happens every day, and my job is to deal with it. “Rampage” is a grown man, he’s acting like a baby right now, but he’s a grown man.”

“He wants to be in the movie business, “Rampage”, good luck to you man. I hope you make it big, and I’m not being sarcastic. Because “Rampage” Jackson is a guy that I actually do like, and “Rampage” Jackson is a guy that I know doesn’t always make the best decisions. And I hope the movie thing works out for him, if that’s really what he truly wants to do, and that’s what he feels and that’s what he thinks his career is, I wish him all the luck in the world. I do like “Rampage”, I have no ill will towards him what so ever.”
