so does this mean the fight's off?

what a douche.

but I can't be pissed cuz I'm sure he did this to prepare for Bader's takedowns. So he probably didn't want to drain too much and lose strength. Will make the fight more interesting IMO.

the fight is still on. Rampage just has to give up 20% of his purse to Bader.

apparently he couldn't lose enough weight in time because he was dealing with an injury. well maybe he shouldn't balloon up so much in between fights. I always use to think this guy should have been at HW anyway. He has more physical strength than most heavyweights, or well he used to anyway.

Rampage doesn't care about fighting anymore.

I think even an unmotivated Rampage beats Bader, but don't be surprised if Rampage goes out there and humiliates himself.

[Zn1]

Rampage is motivated to fight in Japan.

but not really.....

Word was he has some secret injury that he doesnt want to discuss, but either way it looks like he just doesnt have it anymore. He should just retire or move up to heavy weight.
