Roy Jones vs. Quinton Rampage Jackson is Very Possible
Santa Monica, CA (July 25th, 2013)– 44 year old former world champion, Roy Jones and 35 year old former UFC Light Heavyweight Rampage Jackson are in discussions to fight in a boxing match at the end of the year on ppv. Rampage recently left the UFC this year and signed a new contract with Viacom’s Bellator Promotions.
This may same ludricous to some fans, but this fight actually has some potential for an interesting matchup. Rampage will have the power advantage, however Jones is faster, has better footwork, experience and has the superior boxing skills. I would not count Rampage out because he does have a puncher’s chance. Rampage has knocked out many mma fighters in his career with just a lethal right hand. Roy has been knocked out by smaller fighters and is way past his prime. Roy will have to use the ring well,use distance and conditioning to defeat Rampage.
MMAjunkie.com: Viacom is expected to announce plans to go head-to-head with pay-per-view juggernaut Zuffa LLC and its UFC 168 offering at next week’s Bellator 97 event on Spike TV. An unveiling of Bellator fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s plans with the promotion will likely include a pay-per-view boxing match with former multi-division boxing champ Roy Jones Jr. The fight is expected to take place at the end of the year, though a date and weight class for the bout could not immediately be confirmed. It’s also unclear how the event will be branded given Bellator and parent company Viacom’s focus on MMA.
