Rampage Update
« on: July 28, 2008, 11:06:16 AM »
Our friends over at CagePotato.com have an interesting tidbit about the status of Quinton "Rampage" Jackson.
Jackson was recently arrested and charged with a felony after driving his truck in a reckless manner and mildly injuring at least one woman. After the arrest, Jackson was released on bond and was again arrested and placed on a psychiatric hold after friends alerted police of his erratic behavior.

Recently, Cage Potato got the following inside scoop from an anonymous source close to the situation:

Rampage thinks he’s God…He had a falling out with his trainer a couple of days before the first arrest. Basically he has lost his mind and is talking very religious and is saying that he is God. This is the main thing I wanted to keep hidden, but with the second arrest and Dana talking it will come out regardless. He needs some serious help. I don’t know if you would call it schizophrenia or bipolar disorder or what have you, but whatever it is, basically it’s become impossible to have a conversation with him. He is delusional.

three days of no sleep combined with nothing but water and energy drinks ( he was fasting for some odd reason) will do that to ya.

He must have taken his loss pretty hard. It's weird because he was in a good mood during his post fight interview, cracking jokes, etc. It must have sunk in later.

Well, one can hardly blame all that on energy drinks and lack of sleep. But I see your point, stupid stuff like that could trigger an underlying mental condition. Maybe he's also supposed to take some meds and he decided to skip them

Isn't that what they said about Tyson when he went nuts, when it turns out he was just bat-shit crazy?

To quote Chris Rock "can't any body just be crazy anymore..."

Technically his loss to forrest wasn't as bad as when he was KTFO by Wandy. Now that would have caused some major brain trauma.

3 days of no sleep alone will cause  brain misfiring issues from sheer tiredness. When you deprive the brain of nutrients (food) and load up of caffeinated drinks on top of that....well....it's probably a good thing his friends had him sent for a psych eval.

if it's true he stayed up for 72 hours the problem was before the end occurrence....


something made him get to the point where he was in that position to be on his feet and behind a wheel after 3 days

crazycrazycrazycrazy...

trust me, Rampage is done in the UFC.  Dana will never put him in a position to hold another title.  Trust me.
