Rampagisms. The search function is ****ed so I had to re-post this thread, for JoeBoxer and Exciter....

On PrideFC:
"Best fights in the ****ing world. Where else can you pick mutha****er's up over your head, slam his ass, and stomp him in the face, and then get a big wad of ****ing cash for doing it?! You can't do that **** nowhere else in the world."

On fighting philosophy:
"I'm gonna knock a mutha****er out!"

On anger management:
"Man, I'm pissed like a mutha****er, somebody's going to get hurt."

On life and uncertainty:
"**** happens, and ****."

On predicting his fights:
"I don't have a crystal ball. I have two balls."

On the legacy of PrideFC legend Kazushi Sakuraba
(After Damon Perry mentioned how Sakuraba would be remembered if this was his last match) "He'll be remembered for such an unbelievable...entrance."

On fighting philosophy and life (Part II):
"Hell, no. I don't give a ****, man. I don't care. At first I cared, you know what I'm sayin'? I don't care anymore. I just want to get that **** over with tonight. And tonight, I'm gonna do my thang, and when I do my thang, my thang will be done. I don't give a **** who in the finals with me. I gotta beat Chuck Lidell that's the first thing here in my mutha****in way. He gotta get out my way, 'cause I gonna do my ****, man. I'm a soldier. I'm a street soldier. I'm gonna do this ****. **** it, I want that belt. I wanna take that mutha****er home with me. **** it!"

On discovering the wonderful world of Mixed Martial Arts:
"My friends from college took me to a show, and these wrestlers up their kicking ass. I was like damn, you could get paid for kicking ass, and you don't go to jail? Sign me up! 2 months later I was fighting dog!"

On training:
"I wouldn't want to be against me right now, I've been training too hard, I'm just too mentally focused. I don't wanna sound like conceded or anything, but I train too hard. I train too damn hard! I got the best trainer in the world, and my cardio is getting better, and I'm drinking less you know, playing less videogames, training harder."

On career:
"If you love your job, then you know what I feel, when that bell rings I'm loving it, you know what I'm sayin', even if I get my ass kicked, you know what I'm sayin', I don't care you know, I wanna win, but if I get my ass kicked its part of my job, and I love my job it?s the greatest job on earth. It?s the best job on earth man."

On his biggest strength:
"My biggest strength is my strength, I think. That's my biggest strength, 'cause I'm strong. And my biggest strength is, that I'm naturally strong. And that's my biggest strength."


On strategy:
"Just go out there, and try and get that first guy out of the way quick as hell. You know, I don't know who'd I be fighting the second time, and really didn't care 'cause he just get slammed anyway. I think I'm gonna stick to my wrestling tournament style, and get 'em out the way quick as hell."

On the financial rewards of fighting for PrideFC:
"In the final round, I want whoever is hurt the most, 'cause I need that money. Whoever hurt the most, and got the most injuries from their first fight, and they all bleedin', already cut up and everythang, but they still can go for they fight. That's who I wanna fight. The guy that's already got his butt kicked real bad, and he barely won, that's the one I want, because I need that money! That money would look in my pocket, know what I'm sayin'?"

On psyching out (or trash talkin') his rivals (Part I-Masaaki Satake):
"I think Satake is a Japanese redneck because he ain't got no front teeth."

On psyching out (or trash talkin') his rivals (Part II-Wanderlei Silva):
"Yeah *****, I speak Portuguese, and I'm gonna **** you up!"

On education (when asked if he was feeling slighted):
"Do I feel what?"
Interviewer from *************.com: "Slighted..."
"Man, I'm a fighter. You've got to use small words."

On being passed over and opportunity:
"**** this ****! This **** kind of pisses me off. When I went on there, I was on Wanderlei. [He] didn't want to fight. If he were to fight me in the night, he would have a hard fight. Wanderlei happened to have an easy fight. He doesn't want to fight me when I'm 100%. He wants to wait for me to go [against] some other tough [fighter]...But it doesn?t matter if I win or lose the tournament, I've still got to fight him later on."

On fashion (when asked where he got his trademark chain necklace):
"I got it at the hardware store. Where did you think I got it from?"

On reasons to watch Pride FC:
"It's going to be a damn good show! You get to see a damn good tournament -- no matter who wins...it's going to be good. Some people are going to get ****ed up, I'll tell you that much. I just pray to God it ain't me. [Do] you know what I'm sayin'? 'Cause somebody's going to get ****ed up."

On talking smack (or trash talkin'):
"I would say that there's no room in this sport for all that bull****. If Tito and him have a problem with each other than it's between them but just be mature--you know? We can talk **** at the show but when we try and get personal with that, that's when it's bull****!"

On the business of moving up the card in Mixed Martial Arts:
"Evidently, it ain't **** because that was my last fight on the PRIDE contract and they tried to hand me some bull**** number so, evidently it didn't do ****."

On being a showman:
"I just do it. You know me, I like to put on a show no matter where I go. I think you should stand out. I'm a different kind of person. I'm different from everybody else in the world. It's my fighting career. I don't want people to look at me as another ultimate fighter or just another fighter. I want to stand out. Like aww **** I'm about to put on a show."

On starting fighting professionally:
"Well, I was training with Fabiano Iha and Terry Tribel**** needed a fighter, last minute. I had been training with Fabiano for a whil[Be and he asked me if I wanted to fight. I was like F%*& YEAH?I'll fight two weeks notice and ****. I put down the cigarettes and did a lot of training."

On fighting philosophy:
"I just want everybody to know that I'm training hard and whether I win or lose, I'm going to bring the action. I'm gonna try to knock the motherf%*&a out! Go to my Web site and I got T-shirts and **** that says "Rampage." Don't forget about it! I'm hollering at you!"

On acting:
"Hell no. I ain't no ****ing actor. Do I look like a ****ing actor? I'm not a ****ing actor. Maybe one day I would like to be an actor after I'm done fighting and beating people the **** up all the time, but I'm not a ****ing actor. Vanderlei should have never touched me. I'm gonna embarrass his punk ass."

On fighting versus money:
"If the money is right then I will fight him (UFC Champion Randy Couture). I mean if the money was right I would run down the street butt naked."

On childhood:
"On the street all night, gone for two or three days at a time. I never had a childhood, so that?s why now, when I fight, I act the way I do. ?Cause now, I want a childhood."

On the nickname Rampage:
"My cousins named me Rampage when I was little because if things didn?t go my way, I would get so pissed that I would hyperventilate, go on a rampage, and destroy everything around me. They thought it was amusing, so they would continually torment me."

On battling drug dealers at age 12:
"I was holding my own until one of the guys pulled a gun. I hit him in the mouth, he dropped the gun, and I tried to get my cousin to grab it. But he was crying like a baby and wouldn?t pick it up. Luckily, some people came and broke it up."

On foreign cuisine:
"I eat American food [in Japan]. All of the other guys try and eat that damn Japanese ****. My opinion is that they eliminate taste from it, I just eat at the Wendy?s and the McDonald?s."

On enjoying his job and bird killing:
"I?m like, man, I could fight and get paid and not go to jail? It?s like killing two birds with one stone!"

On foreign culture and the fairer sex:
"There are some freaks over there, a whole country full of freaks. Trust me. I know. ?Cause I love them Asian women. When I go there, I am like a kid in a candy store, and they love chocolate men over there! One time, there were these two old ladies?they had to be 60?who wanted to take a picture with me. They were, like, ?Jackson, Jackson.? And then one of ?em grabbed my ass!"

On foreign culture (Part II):
"They also put stuff in the newspapers over there that would never be in the papers in the States. Like, they?ll have a picture of a fighter winning his match and another right next it of some guy getting a blowjob?they kind of black it out, but you can still tell."

On parenthood:
"I?ve got to watch my language in front of my boy (D?Angelo), he?s a parrot right now."

Cont....


On fighting strategy (for Satake's "invisible kick"):
"Well, if it's invisible, goddamn, I guess so because I can't see the motha****a!"

On roots and representing:
"And I want to say hello to all my peoples back in Memphis. I don't think I've been representing Memphis enough. Everybody from Memphis represents Memphis but I haven't been doing it enough."

On talking trash (post match):
"Satake is old. **** him! He hit me in the nuts 4 times."

On treatment from PrideFC:
"I'd like to fight (Daijiro) Matsui one more time but? I don't know if I want to fight in PRIDE again. When I fought Matsui the last time, I accidentally kneed him in the groin and I lost by disqualification. But this time, I got kneed in the groin 4 times and the referee didn't say anything to Satake. If this is the way that I'm going to be treated, I'll stop fighting in PRIDE and fight in the UFC in America. I love the Japanese fans but I've got no reason to fight if PRIDE is not going to treat me fairly. This time too, I came to Japan just 3 days before the fight and I'm still jet-lagged. I've got pride too!"

On a dangerous opponent:
"I think he can knock me the **** out."

On communication:
"I think (Igor) is a nice guy. He don't speak English and I don't speak Ukrainian so we don't talk. He's a nice guy. Like when he kicked someone in the nuts. Like, who was it? Tre Telligman? Before the guy even showed any pain he was already apologizing. Most guys would just keep on whipping their ass until the ref stopped it."

On psyching out (or trash talkin') his rivals (Part III-Kevin Randleman):
"I'll get the 3-count. He's ****. I'll scare him. I'm going to beat him to a pulp."

On philosphy, deep thoughts, and cussin':
"I'm just like the most nonchalant person you could ever meet. What you see is what you get. Some people don't like me because I joke around too much or I have a dirty mouth. My mom is always yelling at me about my mouth. She always watches me fight and she tells me that I should watch my mouth."

On environment:
"The environment you grow up in is what you're going to be. If I had grown up around people who wore their clothes backwards, I'd be like Kriss Kross."

On cussin' (Part II):
"You grow up around people with bad mouths, it's going to come out whether you want it or not. But, I'm nonchalant. I don't care what people think about me. I don't go around judging people. I wish people wouldn't judge me."

On being Rampage:
"I'm going to be me. I live my life to make me happy, not other people. I've got some friends that want to do things but they are worried about what other people are going to say. In high school, a lot of guys wanted to be wrestlers but they didn't like the singlets we had to wear. "Ohh, people are going to think I'm gay." "People are going to laugh at me. I'm worried about what my friends will say." But, they were good athletes, football players. We would wrestle around in the halls and some of these guys could take me down. I told them to come out for the wrestling team but they didn't want to wear the singlet. He wanted to wrestle but he couldn't because he was worried about what other people would think."

On honesty and integrity:
"My dad taught me to be honest. Be honest. Your word is all you have. If people can't trust what you say, you don't have anything. You can tell anybody anything and they won't believe you. I don't want to be that kind of person. I want to be me. I dislike deceitful people. I just don't want to be around them."

On attitude and moods:
"I'm two different people. When I'm working, I'm a different person and fighting is my job. I don't know. I think I'm the same, just playing video games."

On his favorite videogame:
"Well, your (the interviewer's) mom likes the one where you shoot the zombies with the gun. She always comes over to my house to play that one. She's pretty good at Halo."

On cuisine:
"Pizza (is my favorite food). Deep dish meat lover's. Deep dish meat lover's. I **** that **** up."

On sentimentality (towards his trademark chain):
"When it gets rusty, I'll go by a new one. I'm not a sentimental person. Not really."

On superstition (towards his trademark chain):
"Some fighters probably save everything or do the same thing but I'm not like that. I've been wearing a chain since I was in high school. **** happens to them. I forget them somewhere. They look bad after a while. What am I supposed to do, have all these rusty chains hanging up on the wall? I'll throw them away or give them to somebody that wants them. They can have it or they can pull their care with it. I don't care."

On getting nervous before a fight:
"**** yeah. I get nervous but it depends on who I'm fighting. I get more nervous when it's people that I don't know. Like that Russian guy, I didn't know **** about him. So, I was more nervous. When I fought Bustamante, I didn't know much about him. How nervous I get depends on who I'm fighting. This Grand Prix, I've never fought before so I'm nervous. I have trouble sleeping. For a whole month, it's all I've thought about. It's all I've done. Everything. That's all I think about, fighting."

On titles and championships:
"****, (I'll fight for) whichever (title) would get me the most money."

On a bad decision ruining Christmas:
"That was ****ed up. It was right before Christmas time. It was my first Christmas as a big time fighter. I wanted to take care of my own. My family. I promised to buy my mom a car then all the bull**** goes down. I lossed a LOT of money on the dumb ass, bull**** fight. The thing that is ****ed up is they didn't even tell the fans. The fans talk to me all the time asking what happened to that fight? He *****ed out on me that's what happened. He quit. The officials never even said what happened. It was ridiculous."

On cussin' (Part III)
"Do I like to swear? Hell yea I can swear like a mother****a! (laughs)"

On fighting in all major fighting groups
"Yea, I'm a fighter and I call it like I see it. I fought Satake in Pride, then two weeks later I fought a tough mother****er in King of the Cage and I ****ed that mother****er off. He said he was going to beat me, but I had to **** him off. I ****ed that mother****er off ...now I have K-1 up next, so I will take a vacation after this next fight."

On rumors in the Japanese Media of being homeless yet living in a bus:
"Is this [interview] going to be in Japan or America?"
Full Contract Fighter Interviewer: "America."
"Then Japan won?t see this?"
Full Contract Fighter Interviewer: "No."
"Hell no, I don?t live in no mother****in? bus."

On money and his future:
"I?m going to have bodacious beauties all around me, I?m going buck wild. Actually I?m going to save it, but I?m going to get a sweet crib and lots of video games galore; I will be thee man. You won?t see me fight for awhile neither. I?m going to get fat and hairy."

On Halloween:
"(When people come over) I pretend I?m not home, I?m just cutting off all my lights and laying low. I don?t want any of those ugly people coming to my house and ****."

On training and strategy:
"You never know what a mother****a is going to do to you, you have to work on everything."

On knowing when to fight:
"I'm not afraid so I know I can whip a mutha****a ass, you know what I'm sayin', I'm try to talk out of whippin peoples ass, I'm backpeddling, and I tell them I'm not trying to whip your ass, you know what I'm saying, I got in a fight in the club the other day, mutha****a hit me, I was trying not to whip his ass, but the mutha****a hit me dog, so I had to embarrass him, you know I defend myself but I don't go around looking for fights."

On wrestling and the art of the bodyslam:
"When I went to college when I got my ass whooped, I still slammed ****ers. I never been a really good wrestlers, but I knew how to slam ****ers!"

On life philosophy:
"Man, I'm pissed like a mother****a, someones gonna get hurt."

On psyching out (or trash talkin') his rivals (Part IV-Wanderlei Silva):
"Like congo, me Amy, good gorilla! I'm gonna slam your head so hard!"

On Christmas and family:
"This Christmas time, I got 2 presents for Matsui, my left and my right, know what I'm saying, ****, I ain't worried about him, you know what I'm sayin', **** him, I just wanna get home for the holidays."

On age and retirement:
"You're (Satake) too old mother****a, don?t come back to fight nomore, you know what I'm sayin', I apologize for that bull**** you know what I'm sayin', your all ****ed up but you kneed me in the nuts 4 or 5 times you little puss ass mother****a, you get what you mother****in deserve, go get some *****es you *****!"

On doubt and belief in ones self:
"We'll **** everyone that f%*&n doubted me! You know what I'm sayin'. You all gotta believe in Rampage! You know what I'm sayin'. I know I'm from the streets and don't know much, you know what I'm sayin' I aint got much skills."

On body odor:
"That mother****a smelled like plump ass, that?s why I knocked his ass out so quick, I couldn't stand the mother****in smell."

On his body:
"My body looks so succulent and sexy."

Rampage is the man. I wish he would comeback to the sinner's side.

Check my sig too.

Check my sig too.


Your sig is hilarious. As much as I like big tits and big asses, those ring girls are awsome. I don't care how young they look, I'd split them wiiiiiide open.

Who is the plump ass that he mentioned? Does anyone know?

Who is the plump ass that he mentioned? Does anyone know?

I am pretty sure it was Satake.

Wasn't it Abidi he was talking about?

It could have been Ishikawa too, Quinton KO'd him fairly quikly.

**** ya that **** is tight. ya know. cause it's tight its like the ****. **** it. that **** is tight. and when its tight you know its gotta be the ****. i mean **** it. its the ****.

Abidid was the guy that smelt like plump ass

Rampage is crazy!

I have never been here before. This place is cool. :)

O, I think we have some fresh fish.

Nsf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

***Bump***

That was good one, now find one from Chuck Liddell. His language skills are not that sharp either. Good post Kaps!

Rampage is a great modern philosopher.
