Quinton Rampage Jackson vs Wanderlei Silva Bout Tentatively Set For Jan. 31st at UFC 93
September 24, 2008 |
By Steve Cha
Unfortunately for mma fans, it seems that the Wanderlei “Axe Murderer” Silva and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson fight has been scrapped from the UFC 91 card. Kevin Iole, sportswriter for Yahoo sports, has reported that it is a “very fluid situation” but that a reliable source has confirmed that the most likely date for the fight is now Jan. 31 on the UFC 93 SuperBowl weekend card.
UFC 93 is currently headlined by a super fight between UFC light heavyweight champion BJ Penn and UFC welterweight champion George St Pierre. Wanderlei Silva, who currently trains at Extreme Couture, picked up his first UFC victory against journeyman Keith Jardine via vicious knockout 0:36 seconds in the first round. Quinton “Rampage” Jackson recently signed with London base gym Wolfslair. Jackson had put together a training camp to prepare for the Nov. 15th, UFC 91 fight. Jackson’s legal troubles and current situation with long time trainer/mentor Juanito Ibarra could explain the later date.
