“they brought boxing back to life”

Boxing – For Rampage Jackson, there is no shadow of a doubt, the Paul brothers would have restored interest in the noble art.

Rampage Jackson can boast of having devoted two decades of his life to the world of mixed martial arts. From KOTC to Bellator, via Pride or even the UFC, Rampage has no less than fifty-two duels to his credit, with thirty-eight victories including twenty inflicted knockouts. It was at Bellator that he chose to end his career, facing a certain Fedor Emelianenko, once morest whom he lost in 2019.

Since then, he intends to deliver a duel in noble art, facing Shannon Briggs, a legend of the heavyweight category, having notably been world champion WBO. The latter and Rampage Jackson are respectively 43 and 50 years old. They were the leaders of the MMA and Boxing teams, during the first Triad party, organized by the Triller Fight Club. And precisely, Jake Paul has already delivered two of his five fights in professional boxing in this promotion. He had inflicted a first knockout on Nate Robinson, then another on Ben Askren. Rampage Jackson has obviously not missed a crumb of the performances of the youtubeur-boxer.

Logan and Jake Paul

Rampage opened up regarding the Paul brothers in an interview with SCMP MMA : “Looks like they resurrected boxing. With all due respect to all boxers. Even though I’m into MMA, I represent MMA and we have a war once morest boxers right now. I don’t hate boxers, nor the noble art. I think boxing is a lot of work, I know it for having 15 years of practice under my belt. But when Mike Tyson was gone, boxing was no longer at that level of hype. »

Currently, the name of Jake Paul’s next opponent is not yet known, although the names of Anderson Silva and Michael Bisping appear on many lips. At 25, the youtuber-boxer ranked in the top 3 of the highest paid boxers in 2021. The latter never misses an opportunity to defend fighters in the UFC, when the question of remuneration appears in the debates. . Jake Paul had already shot a clip with a rap text where Dana White was parodied, and had announced that he wanted to create a union for MMA fighters.
