Speaking of talking s**t, I saw you had a back-and-forth online with James Toney. What was that about?
Man, after Mo I want to fight Toney next. Actually, I want to fight him in his own sport. I want to face him in a boxing match, and then come back to MMA. We already saw he sucks at MMA, so I’ll beat him at his own sport to shut his ass up. I don’t think boxers should even be called fighters. Just call them boxers, because they don’t have the skills of real fighters like mixed martial artists.

Funny considering he was thinking of making a boxing career... don't think this is completely true, considering he is a stand up fight who rarely goes to the ground if at all.
Lets not call MMA guys fighters either. Its a discredit to true no holds barred street fighters who are allowed to bit, pull hair and knee in the testes.
but in all honesty who would actually do that though in a real street fight? i rather take a lost than to start pulling dudes hair or start biting him LOL! unless its a life or death situation where i need to do so in order to live LOL.

Rampage sounds jealous. MMA guys make no money and I think a lot of them are bitter.
Yeah they just mad because Floyd & Manny make in a single purse what it would take their premier fighters 20 fights in a row to make

im a fan of mma and ufc but it would take them their entire career to make even close to what floyd or pac makes in one fight LOL!!!

This. Rampage is nearly C status fighter in the UFC who was KO'd by Wanderlei silvas right hook LOL. Lost to Forrest Griffin. The guy at this point is a gatekeeper.
I would like to see what Toney said to generate these kind of comments from Jackson. I am pretty sure it is tit for tat stuff where Toney said MMA fighters are not fighters.
I normally like MMA and respect their sport, but what is up with these disgruntled UFC "stars" coming out of the woodwork and dissing boxing lately? Jon Jones said something similar not too long ago, Ronda Rousey thinks she can destroy Mayweather and now Jackson idiotically thinks boxing isn't real "fighting." Are they bitter they make slave wages compared to most top level boxers and their organization is on the decline?
I like the UFC and MMA as a whole, in general, but it does piss me off when their champs, like Jones or Dos Santos when he was HW champ, saying and thinking they could use their limited boxing skills to beat current champs like the Klitschkos. Funnily enough the fight after which he said that, Dos Santos got ****ed up generally by strikes from a mainly wrestling guy. And Jones got roughed up and lucky to win a decision v former Swedish amateur boxer Gustafsson. That was ****ing funny though when at a Q&A recently, Jones basically said he was bull****ting the whole time and would never step into a ring with these guys.
Jon Jones never wanted to box a Klitschko: 'I'm not trying to get killed'

I think there's a lot of jealousy/animosity towards boxing from mma fighters.
Although I respect the sport a lot, it's hard to get around the fact that it involves more grappling than actual striking yet is still the act of fighting between fighters. Maybe they should look up the definition of "fighter".
Also their very blatant disrespect of the sport of boxing goes against the teachings of the pioneer of mma himself; the man, the myth, Bruce Lee. Bruce not only praised boxing but used it as a staple in his art.
To make a long story short; don't mind them, they're stupid. Boxing is the greatest combat sport on earth whether they like it or not.
Oppenheimer bombed em.
A boxer would very likely beat an MMA fighter in boxing and an MMA fighter would very likely beat a boxer in an MMA fight...very simple. Yes, Rousey or whatever her name is would destroy Floyd within minutes in MMA.
A fighter is anyone who can fight. Box your face off, choke you out or KO you with a spinning kick.
I have respect for all types of combat so these bitter MMA guys need to just cut the crap. Why doesn't rampage get in the ring with an in form heavyweight boxer and see how much of this 'not a fighter' crap he's talking about afterwards.
Boxing will always be more relevant than MMA. Always.
