During his prime, Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson was one of the most feared fighters in the UFC. Towards the twilight of his career, Jackson went to Bellator. In his final Bellator fight, he was defeated by Fedor Emilianenko via T/KO in the first round.
Rampage Jackson holds an MMA record of 38-14, and has fought some of the biggest names in the UFC. Jackson competed in the light heavyweight division during his time in the organization, but has moved up to heavyweight since.
Glover Teixeira, Jon Jones, Lyoto Machida and Ryan Bader are just a few amongst the long list of competition 'Rampage' has faced in the past. The peak of his career came in UFC 71, when he knocked out Chuck Liddell to become the UFC light heavyweight champion.

He then defended his belt successfully against Dan Henderson. Unfortunately for 'Rampage,' his time at the top was shortlived, as he was beaten by Forrest Griffin at UFC 86.
Since then, stints in Bellator and fan-friendly fights have made up the bulk of Rampage Jackson's time under the spotlight.
