Good to see that he is getting the exposure he deserves. Too bad I cant find the article on Rolling Stone. I think they have a delay between the newstands and the internet. I guess you have to pay to be current.

The foot injury Rampage incurred in that fight has been a chronic problem for Rampage ever since. It was noted as one of the causes of his lackluster performance against Shogun

There has also been speculation that his broken foot is directly linked to an increase in C02 emissions.

If you guys go to the video player at TMZ.com there is a 15 second video of Rampage bumping into a member of “RUN DMC” and the rapper is star struck to see Rampage.

Yup, I’m pretty sure Al Gore has claimed that if Rampage stopped breaking off his foot in kid’s asses, global warming would decrease by 20%.

I cant stand to hear the stories about how many kids somebody beat up in kindergarten. I always thought it was sad to pride yourself on that kind of crap. He can kick some ass though.

Just some of my favorite Rampage-isms-
On his UFC debut against Marvin Eastman:
“I love Marvin, he’s like a brother to me. But right now it’s time for some black-on-black crime.”
Interview before his rematch against Chuck Liddell:
Question: “Chuck said in his pre-fight interview it’s gonna be a first round knockout. What do you have to say about that?”
Rampage: “If he plans on getting knocked out in the first round that’s his business.”
On his main concern about fighting Liddell:
“I don’t want to kill him. It’s a sport you know, I just hope he survives.”
Joking about his friend Tito Ortiz having a large head:
“They made a Tito bobblehead but that (thing) wouldn’t bobble, it would just fall down to one side and stay there.”
Interview with PRIDE announcer Stephen Quadros:
Quadros: “Rampage, where do you see yourself in 2 years?”
Rampage: “Well, right now I’m 23, so in two years, I see myself 25.”
During a post-fight interview:
“If I forgot a sponsor, then you aint paying me enough.”

Be fun to see how Shogun fares against rampage now, without the steroids, without the head stomps and soccer kicks, and without the corners. I think Wandy will be the only one to translate well in to the UFC because he has fought in the cage before. It will be sometime before Shogun is the dominate force he was.

RAMPAGE-ISMS…So great….Thank you for the good morning laugh. You foget how colorful of a character he actually is until you look back on all the things he says and will say. I remember one of his interviews before he fought Eastman and debuted in UFC and he was talking about hoe the UFC messed up by letting him in the UFC. Talking about how ghetto he was and all, and the reporters face was just like, Oh my god what has happened…

Rampage is the best..With-out a doubt..He’s got the carisma and pride to be a champ..a people’s champ..
Page has alwyas been exciting, win or lose!
His next opponent will be very tuff, it has to be.. i eman he pissed everyone in the UFC by ko’ing CHuck(no dis-respect).
Now they are going to throw everything they can at page..But all he would probably say “Bring it” “Ya feel me”
Page is a big playa this way(Saskatchewan, Canada)..When i saw a fight. one guy said after it was over"did u see that guy Rampage him"…lol..Rampage is the face of MMA right now, and a good one at that!

Those two kill me. Not the first time I’ve heard Rampage talk about the massive size of Tito’s head. lol.

Rampage is great. I’m glad he gets a spread in Rolling Stone.
As far as his next fight, right now Forrest Griffin is at the top of the heap. A year ago, who would have thought Forrest Griffin would beat Shogun and propel himself to the top? The exception might be if they fast track Houston Alexander because they know it would be a good fight. But I think Forrest Griffin makes more sense. Even though I predict he’ll get KO’d if he fights Rampage.

Griffin vs Page= Page by brutal devistation. Ya feel me?

Great for Rampage. I hope he holds on to the title for a while. He’s good for the UFC and puts on a great show.

I still like what the late comedian Mitch Hedburg would have said, “celebrating the 2 year anniversary of you asking that question.”

After it is all said and done I think that Rampage will go down in history as one the best champions ever in the UFC. Awesome fighter, great personality. The dude is only 29 too – 29 is pretty young for a UFC fighter. Black on Black crime could be the best quote =)

Rampage= The first Black LHW Champion. Yeah, Page will be rememberd for a long time

Quinton has a DVD called “Rampage Unchained”. The video production quality is average. Mix between home video & camera guy following him around. Funny shit!
