Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s hands are not injured, haven’t been injured and won’t impact him in his bout for the light heavyweight title at UFC 135 on Sept. 24 in Denver against champion Jon Jones.

But there was enough discussion of the state of Jackson’s hands that it has led the former champion to suspect he has a spy in his midst.

Spygate has come to the UFC.

Jackson said in a Skype interview with Yahoo! Sports on Monday that he made up a story about having a hand injury last week. Yet, four hours after he mentioned the story in his gym, he said his manager received a call from UFC matchmaker Joe Silva asking about it.

Story continued in link...

haha I was just reading this on Bloody Elbow. They were talking about how he made accusations about Rashad having spies too after they fought. Maybe hes right and that camp just uses spies. They are the Patriots of the mma world lol

I bet this kind of stuff goes on more than we know or even think.  All sports have spies.

First post.  This is pretty interesting and I'd be surprised if it doesn't occur more and more throughout the sport as it evolves.  With training partners switching camps , they are bound to have contacts at old camps that they can pull pieces of information from.

if jones is as confident as he says he is why would he spy?

Who cares if there is a spy.  It's a fight, so if you're better you'll win.  Just hit the gym and train, and stop setting up excuses for when you lose!

Good point.  If you're doing what you're supposed to be doing, who cares if someone is spying.
