Top 10 MMA News & Rumors of the Week
Yet another wild week in MMA has passed us by, and the MMA community witnessed a few fighters change things up on the professional front, while others went through changes in their personal lives.
With UFC 222 in the rear-view, and UFC 223 approaching fast, the MMA world seems to be primed for one of the biggest fight cards of the 2018 calendar year. So, without further ado, here are the top 10 MMA news & rumors of the week--
#5 Rumor: Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson vs. Wanderlei Silva 4
Per Gazeta Do Povo (*courtesy--MMAJunkie), Rampage Jackson could face 'The Axe Murderer' for the fourth time in their respective MMA careers; with the fight taking place inside the Bellator cage this time around.
While the MMA community has been abuzz with banter of a couple of other legends, Chuck Lidell and Tito Ortiz facing off in a trilogy matchup, in Bellator, the chances of that fight coming to fruition are now slim.
Regardless, Rampage now stands at 1-2 against Silva--with the former having avenged his two KO/TKO losses to Silva in Pride FC, with a knockout of his own in the UFC.
This could rake in the eyeballs for Bellator later this year, and is definitely a rumor worth keeping one's eye on.
