MMA H.E.A.T. went to the Muscle Pharm Sports Science Center in Denver, CO, where Karyn Bryant caught up with former UFC Light Heavyweight Champ Quinton "Rampage" Jackson, one week before his title fight against current Champ, Jon Jones. Rampage speaks candidly about a number of subjects, including: why he is so motivated to defeat Jones and reclaim the belt, how he felt about his performance in the Matt Hamill fight and his desires to avenge his loss to Mauricio "Shogun" Rua. Rampage lets us know how he stays grounded after 40 professional fights, how long he wants to keep fighting, and what kinds of projects he'd like to put together in Hollywood and in the world of gaming. And of course, the infamous motorboat incident comes up: Karyn and Rampage talk about what happened during their UFC 130 post-fight interview, the reaction people had to it and what Karyn would have done to Rampage if she had indeed felt threatened.

QUINTON "RAMPAGE" JACKSON

*** On "Cocky" Fighters:
"I'm a very confident person when I fight, but I'm not cocky, and I really despise cocky people. So, I just don't like it and I want to be victorious over cocky fighters. And this guy (Jon Jones) has really motivated me to train hard. He's so cocky, he's too young to be this cocky.... Just some stuff he said to me at the Press Conference. Like, some of the stuff he said to me was uncalled for. I didn't know he was that cocky until then. Some fans and stuff were (already) saying it - But, he was just saying some stuff that was uncalled for. There's a difference between being confident and cocky, but its a thin line. He just said a few remarks that got to me like, 'Yea, this kid is cocky.' And, all due respect, the kid is tough, he's a great fighter, but he hasn't had enough fights to have his head up his a-- like that."

*** On Jones' lack of Experience:
"We don't know if he has a chin. I know I have a chin, a rock chin. God made me like a fighter, I was designed to fight. I know Jon Jones is probably going to take me down, I know he's going to punch me, I know he's going to kick me, and I know I'm durable. I know that - I know I can go five-rounds. I know that, I've been there. He don't know if he can go five-rounds, he don't know if he can take a shot from me, he don't know if I can take him down or not. He don't know. He knows I have great punching power and boxing and stuff like that, but does he really know what I have planned for him?"

*** On getting "HIS" Belt back:
"I really want my belt back, really bad. But, at the same time, I don't have as much pressure as Jon Jones has because he has to defend his title. He's basically, technically undefeated. He's never been beat up before and stuff like that. I want the belt back, it's like the first piece to me ending (my career) with a great legacy. Like I've said, I want to do other things, I don't want to fight for much longer - a couple more years."
