Quinton Jackson: UFC Just Stopped Me From Retiring

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is looking to fight again after winning at UFC 186 several months back, but that Jackson has one problem that is in his way. Jackson remains under a general injunction after a judge ruled against a motion to dismiss. There’s no timetable on the case.

While appearing on the MMA Hour this week, Jackson (36-11) mentioned that he would rather retire than fight for Bellator MMA if he can’t get cleared in this case and fight in the UFC.

However, it appears that things have changed for Jackon.

Jackson posted this on his website:

“UFC just stopped me from retiring. More news to come on my next fight??”

Mauricio “Shogun” Rua is rumored to be Jackson’s possible opponent should a UFC fight happen.
