Rampage Was At The Affliction Show?
According to Kevin Iole’s mailbag:
Jackson was admitted to a Southern California mental health facility a day after the incident, though he was released and was seen at the Affliction show on Saturday. Jackson has long been a good guy and last week’s incident was far out of character. Perhaps it indicates a mental issue of some sort. I simply wish him well and hope he fully recovers, regardless of whether he ever fights again.
I thought he was still undergoing evaluations? Also, I find it odd that he would attend the Affliction event…opposed to the UFC event that took place on the same night. I know he’s sponsored by Affliction…maybe he wasn’t permitted to travel out of state or something? Anyone with any details on this situation feel free to inform me.
*Update-I now have heard from more than one source that Jackson was not at the show…there was a look alike in attendance. I just find that hard to believe…how the hell can you mistake Rampage Jackson?

It would just be crazy to me that they’d let him go to another orgs show when they had a UFC the same night…maybe he did but I’ve read several places it was a look alike

Nah.. Dana said on a radio show that Quinton asked for permission to be at the event, And Dana allowed him.
