Quinton “Rampage” Jackson vs. Wanderlei “The Axe Murderer” Silva

One of the ultimate grudge matches, Jackson came in to this fight looking to redeem himself for the two brutal loses to Silva in Pride. After losing to Griffin, Jackson has recently switched camps to the Wolfs Lair in the UK, and according to him, he has never been in better shape. There was some bad blood going in to this fight. The fighters have had words over the internet, and also during the weigh in.

The fight started off very slow. Both fighters were very cautious and felt each other out. There were some great leg kicks by Silva, and Jackson landed some good jabs, but after three minutes of the first round, Silva went in for a combination, and Jackson caught him with a solid left hook knocking him out cold.

Jackson was happy about the win, and even though he said his next title shot is up to the UFC, it is obvious he is back at the top of the heap.

Silva has took some serious punishment of his career, and this fight just added to it. Many may wonder where Silva will go from here, but I am certain we have not seen the last of him.
