"I think that if I fought Wanderlei Silva in the UFC I would have beat him. Wanderlei was the Chuck Liddell of Pride. If you were beating Wanderlei on the ground, the referee's would stand you right up. It happened to me. It happened to other fighters that fought him.... Me and Silva don't even talk to each other. Silva is the type of guy that thinks everyone should be afraid of him. The way I react around him is different. I am not afraid of Wanderlei Silva. They call him 'The Axe Murder' because he destroys people in his fights. They threw him chumps and he murdered them. Look at his record of guys he fought. This guy is 'The Chump Murderer.' I speak my mind around him and he looks at me all crazy like I shouldn't be saying that. I think some of the referees took payoffs in Pride. In Japan, I promise you something was up."

While a guest on the Opie and Anthony radio show, reigning UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Quinton "Rampage" Jackson reflected on his two crushing losses to Wanderlei Silva while the two competed under the Pride FC banner overseas in Japan. It's widely believed that Silva will drop down to middleweight after his upcoming fight with Keith Jardine at UFC 84: "Ill Will," which would put a damper on seeing a third match up -- this time inside the Octagon -- anytime soon.
