Rampage Not Done Fighting, Signs New Contract

Quinton "Rampage" Jackson has been on bad terms with the UFC ever since he left the company to shoot the A-Team movie. The issues with the UFC resulted in Jackson declaring his retirement from the sport of MMA. Then this past month, Rampage decided to come back for one last fight against arch rival Rashad Evans. All signs pointed to the Evans fight being the last time we would get to see Jackson in the octagon, as Rampage was still very upset with UFC President Dana White. Apparently all the bad blood has been forgotten and Rampage has signed a new 6 fight contract with the UFC. The UFC even went as far as to buy Rampage a new vehicle, to entice him into signing the new contract. When announcing the new deal, Dana White had this to say;

"Rampage and I are friends again now. I was mad at him because of what he's done and he was mad at me because I was mad at him. No, we just renewed Rampage's contract, its a 6 fight contract."

Rampage's first fight will headline UFC 114, when he takes on Rashad Evans in what is going to be an absolute war.

Who will win Ben Henderson vs Frankie Edgar 2?
