interesting, yeah i can see it happening. his heart isnt in it, he wont get a title shot any time soon and a win in japan seems a great end

I got the vibe that this will be his last fight after reading his blog contribution on yahoo
http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/news;_ylt=AmLfsn0lf4ZDO0.OPhwnlIc9Eo14?slug=ys-ufc_144_quinton_rampage_jackson_japan_022212


Sounds like he just wants to bring to life some of his nostalgia for Pride and hang them up.

I think if he wins this fight via KO it would be awesome for him to end his career right where he started it.

I think he has plenty of fight left in him too but it seems like his heart just isn't into it anymore. I really hope he is in it for this fight though and can end his career with a big time KO in Japan

In an interview with heavy.com Rampage says he has about 2 years left to fight MMA. But he does say he still wants to try boxing too.
