Rampage being Rampage: Flips on Ariel Helwani, and Motorboats Karyn Bryant

Following his dominant unanimous decision victory over Matt Hamill in the main event of Saturday's UFC 130, top Light Heavyweight contender Quinton "Rampage" Jackson seemed in high spirits as he spoke to both Karyn Bryant of MMA Heat and Ariel Helwani of MMAFighting. Jackson talked to Bryant about avenging his recent losses and admits that he only gave her the interview "because she's hot". Speaking to Helwani, on the other hand, "Rampage" explained that when he was punching Hamill, he was picturing him as Ariel and says he hopes a shot at division champ Jon Jones is next.

UFC President Dana White revealed at the event's Post-Fight Press Conference that Jackson could, indeed, be next in line to challenge for the Light Heavyweight title, but stated that no decision could be made until "Rampage" has his injured hand examined by a doctor. Photo: Francis Specker

    Rampage is the most entertaining fighter inside n outside the cage imo.....dude gives the funniest interviews n has so many funny random clips online, I think my favorite one is still the one he did with Bas back in Pride

    Lmao .... Rampage is funny as hell, what a character!! I hope he keeps training hard and works his way to the shot at the belt. I think he needs another fight before Jones though ..... If he gasses against Jones he's gonna end up a bloody mess

    I think Jones would beat Rampage rather easily, Rampage's best chance of winning would be to push the pace and get close to Jones but that will leave him open to the takedown which i think Jones could get quite easily but i think Rampage would end up just looking for the counter punches like he has done in his last couple of fights and seeing as Jones has very good strikes and a longer reach i think he would pick him apart.

    Totally agree, i've always loved Rampage, especially his interviews. After this one, i have to say i ain't a fan no more.



    He picks on Ariel who's interviewing him and being nice to him, he claims he doesn't like him cuz he apparently talked bad about him without any proof whatsoever, Ariel kept being nice and insisted on the fact he never said anything bad.



    The only way Rampage knows how to deal with anger is violence. It's good for his job, but it's very sad to see that he applies it to his every day life. Plus claiming he's an "alpha male" has to be one of the most pathetic things i've heard.



    Even though he's a funny guy, i don't agree at all with any of those 2 interviews, cuz what he did and say to the lady interviewing him was extremely disrespectful as well. He probably thinks they are unknown reporters cuz he doesn't watch interviews much like us fans; but i'm sure he lost a good amount of fans after this.

    What I find amusing is that you don't realize he is just putting on a show, I can guarantie that he has no hard feelings towards Ariel but thinks its funny and puts on a show.

    @Alex I know it can be hard to tell, but it was all a joke. He may have prolonged it so it became awkward to watch but overall he was joking try not to get too emotional. If really wanna see someone be an ass in an interview check Ariel interview with Nick Diaz then watch the Rampage one again and the difference will become clear and you'll wish you didn't write such a shortsighted comment.

    I already watched both interviews you're talking about and i think Nick was being a douche just like Rampage is being a douche, just different ways of being an idiot.

    He's not joking 100% i don't know if you've ever been in those kinds of situations in your life but i can tell when someone is being 100% joking. Look at how nervous he made Ariel. He decided to joke a little from time to time to make it less awkward but the fact is, he threatened him a little bit and he insulted him fo sure.

    So yeah i maintain my comment and all i wish is that you could tell the difference between someone serious and someone joking. I would have loved to see you instead of Ariel. Anyway, no hard feelings against anyone, except Rampage.

    @alex



    I couldn't agree more...Rampage was being a ****...no joke no light/hard humor in his tone on certain sections of the interview....I truly believe that he thinks that Ariel was talking crap about him and whatever question Ariel would have asked him, pissed him off....Simply put, if Karen was asking those exact same questions (even "squashing" things) he would have been more open to humor and none threatening.



    Here's a question....if Jones says almost the same (alpha male, etc) comment (to Ariel), he would been labeled as ****y....but if Rampage does it....he's being entertaining?

    Point is Rampage has been joking around with the media for years now. Are you telling me (Alex and Friendly) that you've forgotten the interviews he had before and after the Griffin, Silva, Liddell, Hendo, Jardine and Evans bouts?



    Short memories you guys have...



    There's a difference between what Jones does and what Jackson does. One has utilized a fake personality, while the other is a funny asshole at 24/7.

    @doomsday



    You've said it!....being an "asshole"....if a funny one, then why did it seem like Ariel didn't seem like he's not in on the joke...I've seen Rampages other interviews, but I just think, he believes that Ariel has said some s*hit about him and just doesn't like him (bad first impression as seen in this link: http://camelclutchblog.com/rampage-jackson-doesnt-like-ariel-helwani/) .



    I don't really care for Ariel, I find him okay (i like Megan Olivi better!) but my point is that I felt that Rampage was threatening him....insulting him sorta of like what a bully would do. But for what? IF Ariel had actually talked s*hit about him then that's a different story - in which he didn't. Otherwise, I thought, great win for Rampage against Matt Hamill, but bad representative for the sport.

    Ariel asked Rampage some questions he didn't like but now Rampage is just having fun with it. Believe me Rampage is one of the smartest fighters out there and he understands media far better then any other fighter. Why do you people think he howls when he walks out or wears a chain around his neck? You seriously think he does that shit to intimidate his opponent or psyche himself up? No he does that for the fans and media.

    I've seen another video of rampage where he was making fun of some Japanese girl's teeth because they were crooked or something. I have to agree he is pretty much a d-bag.

Coz if making fun a female with fukd up teeth, saggy breasts or real bad acne then DAMN i'm a b-bag and so is every other guy I know.

    I bet you don't have the guts to say it to rampages face. I'd bet you wouldn't say it over a pay phone to him. he makes a litte joke with the interviwer and then you start complaining like a little girl. Do you think he gives a damn if he loses one little fan while at the same time he probly gains like a thousand with these interviews.
