MMA: Rampage Jackson Believes Team (Greg) Jackson Is "Ruining MMA"
Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson believes MMA trainer Greg Jackson's team is ruining MMA.
On Denver radio, Rampage was featured alongside UFC 135 opponent Jon Jones, who is one of two UFC champions that trains out of Team Jackson in Albuquerque, N.M.
Jackson is nicknamed "Yoda" by students and peers due to his ability to analyze fights and concoct masterful game plans. But everyone doesn't appreciate his chess-like approach to MMA.

"I have to say that right now. Jackson, man, ya'll are some boring fighters. Ya'll ruining MMA for me, straight up," said Rampage. "I guarantee you Jon Jones don't fight me like a man. Just like his boy, his old teammate Rashad. He came from the Jackson team––the most boring team out there right now."
Evans defeated Rampage by a unanimous decision at UFC 114 in what has to be one of the most disappointing grudge matches of all time. Few fights had ever garnered the hype of Rampage versus Evans.
When the fight finally came around, months of anticipation came down to a 15-minute tussle against the cage. Against another phenomenal wrestler, Rampage expects Jones to attempt to implement a similar strategy.
Jackson's MMA has quickly become one of the most successful gyms in the world. Along with Jones, the gym also includes UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre, who has been subject to plenty of criticism for his lack of fight finishes.
"All these game plans and stuff––GSP was the man before he started training over there with Jackson. I still like GSP, but I wish he would go and do his own thing cause GSP is one of the best fighters out there, straight up. And ya'll ruining MMA," Rampage said.
Finishing hasn't been a problem for Jones, who has gone the distance only two times in his professional career.
Is Team Jackson to blame, or should opponents be held responsible for their inability to adapt and contend in every aspect of fighting?
Regardless, Rampage had better lace up his wrestling boots for this one.
