the veteran Quinton Rampage Jackson will have one of the most important fights of his career in recent years next Saturday (17), when he will face his opponent Muhammed “King mo” Lawal in the final of the Bellator light heavyweight GP.
Rampage promises to be aggressive during the fight, which he believes is a separate attraction – something relevant, as this is the first Bellator event to be broadcast on pay-per-view in the United States.
“My struggle alone will make it worth buying the pay-per-view. This is one of the few grudge fights in current MMA, where the fighters honestly don't like each other. I'm going to put on an exciting fight, I'm going to hunt him down from the moment the bell rings. I hadn't done that in a while. I will dictate the entire rhythm. I have a message to send, and I think it will be worth it”, commented the North American.
However, Rampage stated, in an interview with the North American website “MMA Fighting”, that he does not believe that a victory over Mo will be enough to forget his rival. “It would be fun [to not talk about Mo anymore], but I'm not exhausted by it. I can't wait to get Saturday night, or Sunday, after the fight, and I've destroyed King mo, but I’m still sure people will continue talking about him,” he said.
the fight between Rampage and Mo will headline Bellator 120, which will take place in Southaven, in the US state of Mississippi. The winner of the fight will have the opportunity to face Emanuel Newton for the organization's linear title.
