You gotta love Rampage. He's so genuine. I have ultimate respect for the guy and his warrior spirit.

Anyone who said Rampage hates Ariel they must have no seen their 30 interviews lol... Ufc was so good back then.

any fighter should absolutely​ say they could beat whoever. if they're not confident they've already lost.

thanks for uploading on youtube ariel. please do this for all your mma hour shows.

Man whatever they say I’d love to see rampage come back to the ufc atleast one time and give him a fight in Japan while we’re at it

Best MMA Hour ever!! Subscribed! And again on iTunes!

These two are great together, always!

Its so weird having been watching mma for only two months now, watching both of these guys shows of current times and then coming back for this video which is 11 years ago.. feeling low key nostalgic even though I didnt even know ufc existed back then.

Great interview! Matt Mitrione calling in was just icing on the cake, hope this fight happens.

These two have such comical chemistry

Feeling nostalgic watching this. Rampage Jackson the legend, such a humble guy, love his chill vibe. Real cool dude. Good memories. 😊

I love listening to Rampage talk. 1 hour went by in 10 minutes.

Just watched this now all these years later really enjoyed this

Dope interview man!

I love when Jons crawled in on Vitor and he tried to kick him in the face! CLASSIC

Rampage is the man! He would fight anyone and make it exciting much respect

Love this Ariel guy, hes a solid reporter

brilliant point about the japanese culture and being respectful. it is exceedingly rare to experience this sort of behaviour here in the states. also like what he said about fighting with honor.

Great interview

yeah! me too. he's very enertaining and well spoken.

Love you Rampage man, thanks for entertaining me and giving it your all. I still appreciate you dammit!

Rampage turned me into a MMA fan and i will always be a Fan of Rampage, respect.

Yes he did, He has 7 submissions on his record. 3 rnc 1 armbar 1 to injury and 1 to punishment. If you watched his fights in Pride not just the UFC and his earlier fights in GC. KOTC and Dangerzone you'd see he used to mix his attack up with wrestling, muay thai, boxing and submissions. The guy trained with Colin Oyama a sick Muay Thai coach and Dean Lister an elite BJJ trainer when he was with Team Punsihment and Team Oyama.

respect to Rampage and Ariel, really good interview

Rampage is awesome! He's the guy that truly got me addicted to MMA. Much respect for him for life!

Your show is one of the best on youtube. Just so well done. Timing is perfect. No dead space. Perfect amount of hostility/civility with a bunch of men who want to kick each others face in. Studio setup is dope. Keep it up!

Whats the name of the opening song of the MMA hour?

Thank you sir!

i agree with everything Rampage is saying here he is a true fighter got that samurai pride. made me respect him so much more

Why are people commenting on this like it was yesterday. Jones and Rampage already fought. Guess who won.

I have so much respect for rampage when he commented on kicking the knee back! This is so true, its not a street fight its a sport.

Good stuff!

Great interview,i could listen to rampage all day long,he's a legend.

cant help but love rampage jackson, always makes me laugh but a cool guy too.

Rampage is number 1. I hope he keeps fighting.

great interview ! ariel and rampage are great together

Rampage's reflection on his own action figure was GOOD

Ariel Hawani and Rampage Jackson is a magical combination. Ariel in general is a very good.interview to hear.

"spit rounds like a gun range, beat it up like rampage"

thank you

Rampage looked in great shape there. Looking forward to his next fight, whoever it is.

Well said man, very well said.

Gotta luv RAMPAGE

I live MMA. been following since the beginning and have never heard him referred to as page. can you name someone whos called him that.

anyone knowwhat the song is called at the beginning?

It's easily one of the most dangerous techniques in grappling, most people don't have time to tap fast enough unless you apply slow pressure which won't happen during a fight.

THANK YOU.

i like how out right he is about the money hate when some fighters say i dont do it for the money but then turn down a fight cuz there not a big name or dont think they will make alot for fight

Rampage is the MOST ENTERTAINING UFC fighter ever! He is so great for the sport.

"After I knock you out I'ma do the Korean dance on you!" hahahahaha

I understand. My point is that there is no worse injury, and that kick is designed to eithre cause that injury, or make people worry so much about it, that they cant fight. That is why Vitor pulled guard...

Yea im ready

he's always doing things like this for the fans. he's not a madonna like some may think, met him in japan. real cool guy. he was talking to everyone like he'd known us for years.

What's the intro song called?

It’s 2021 and I’m still wondering if Rampage will ever beat Jon Jones in a rematch 🙄

Who was Rampage talking about @29.05? Love Rampage!

trust me, if i didn't know or wasn't sure what i was talking about, i wouldn't have stated anything towards you. i agreed with you that Machida won round 3, hands down but YOU are counting TOTAL STRIKES. I was counting SIGNIFICANT STRIKES. when i say SIGNIFICANT strikes, i meant POWER SHOTS. not little shots or total strikes. don't be ignorant. fights shouldn't always be judged on total strikes i really need to choose my words more carefully lol...

Agreed, ive been thinking its not sportsman like. It's not going to be very good if fighters start putting each other out of action for months on end

agreed with you totally.

37:17 - 44:00 good stuff.

Make this fight happen!

Im gonna do some thing ppl usually dont do on the internet. Im gonna say that i think you might be right. but my question is once he has taken a fight why does he not put it on the line. He mentions that he slammed a guy in Japan and it took all the energy out of him. Would a slam have taken all the energy out of the old rampage ?

what song is lil wayne saying rampages name?

I Agree

20:45 Ariel: We would have had a problem" Rampage: "You don't want no problems." LOL!

Rampage is hilarious!:)

not available on ipad!

I would watch Rampage fight in any organization he went to!!!!

yeah it was. bisping was his teammate in camps. and he did fight this weekend

I wanna see him fight again soon!!!

I agree

Well, we are not sure about Jones' chin because we've never seen anybody able to hit it. But to just be convinced Dos Santos would floor Bones is kind of like writing him off. Jones' stand up and movement would cause JDS some problems, but I think JDS would ultimately get a decision.

Trash talk at the end was priceless!

the knee kick shoudnt be made illegal because its a good tactic to keep an opponent from closing the distance on you. its kind of like a front push kick except lower down.

Back when he fought bad opposition. The level of the MMA fighters has risen immensely since.

There was/is a shot of Jones doing that spinning elbow they were using on one the show intros or something and it clearly lands right on the back of the other guy's head. Wondering why Jones hasn't been called on that myself.

word, those are scary man if push goes through get ready to have your knee aiming the wrong direction, hopefully they'll make em illegal before someone gets hurt.. (if you don't agree next time you are at the gym get a buddy to gently try one on you and let me know)

I truly sware and stand by rampage he seems to be strong mentally as well as physically. the matt meat head mittrione fight does not make sence he is 6-3ft 255lb 83in reach....... But I truly think he can put his lights out but I wanna see shogun rematch.

true but after your last comment i had been let it go and dropped it thus the "then be my guest" comment. i wasn't discussing the Machida vs Rampage fight anymore. i was giving my opinion on the scoring of leg kicks in general. a new topic which i feel strongly about. trust me, this was my last comment. i'd rather let people believe what they wanna believe then go back and forth in the comments sections all day and night.. trying to impact a random strangers opinion online isn't worth the time

you're right about arm bars and knee bars being just as dangerous but at least you have the choice of tapping before it hyper extends too much. if you don't tap and your arm or leg snaps then that's your call. the front knee kick in other words, you don't have a choice whether or not letting it get injured, it just happens. it can hinder your knee useless and can end your whole career. hell, you may not even be able to walk if your knee is hindered. like the guy said, it's basic common sense...

Great fighter and cool guy

It's just something many older fighters have in my eyes. the guys like Wanderlei,Rampage and some others have. They fought so much on the highest levels of martial arts. Imagine 15 of more years of martial arts fighting take a toll on the body. even with pro training and diets. Also injuries from the past can have a factor combined with the age. i'm not suprised older fighters are kinda slacking in the octagon from time to time. But it's a normal thing. it's life.

Exactly but not all fighters use each aspect of mma equally. Strikers like to strike, black belts like to roll, and wrestlers like to wrestle. People work with their strengths and rightfully so.

Well Ryan Bader is definitely no slouch and Rampage came in unmotivated and out of shape for that fight. My point is he's not necessarily losing his skills as a fighter, but rather like he said he lost the passion necessary to succeed at the highest level in this sport. I hope he bounces back strong and starts smashing people again. Rampage.

You just gotta respect Rampage as a fighter

i love rampage hes such a legend

"This is your best performance since the Liddell fight." Gotta love Ariel

Agreed

wait...there going to be k1 on spike tv?

I have a feeling Rampage is serious, he isn't done yet. He seems confident and that is the most important tool imo.

Check his records on Sherdog. He Has 7 submissions on his record. 1 kimura, 2 rnc, 1 armbar, 1 submission to injury, 1 to punches 1 to knees to body, Oh by the way. The ufc was not the first mixed martial arts promotion, Pancrase uta livre and vale tudo have been around for almost a century combined. Vale Tudo has been around since 1920.

Rampage is the man!!!

I know he did i saw it but he still DIDN'T poke him in the eye. I can't recall n e fight where Jones poked his opponent in the eye. Not only that but he said everytime he throws the spinning back elbow it lands in the back of the head. I never seen that either. The only elbow that was illegal that i could recall was the one on Hamill but he was seconds away from getting TKO'd n e way

rampage is cool guy. he's thoughtful, funny (owned Mitrione over the phone), honest and care free guy.....Team Rampage

You gotta love Rampage. He still working to put his sons through college and make it rain in the club.

rampage is a legend!!!

Well said! You beat me to it.

i agree , if they do infact fight its going to be his hardest fight yet.

I think rampage would have been a champion if he did boxing instead of MMA, it might be a little late now but boy it would be so exciting!

Rampage is a beast. Always was and always will be.
