“I Think UFC and Bellator Should Be Worried Right Now”- Quinton “Rampage” Jackson Warns MMA Organizations to Be Wary of Triad Combat

Quinton “Rampage” Jackson took part in Triller’s first Triad Combat this Saturday. He led the MMA team against the boxing roster coached by former WBO heavyweight champion Shannon Briggs.

When broached about the event, the former UFC light heavyweight champion told MMAJunkie– “It’s something new; I think it’s here to stay. I think the UFC is gonna be worried about this. I don’t know what Dana White’s response is gonna be.”

The Triad Combat took place in Arlington, Texas. Overall, the event was quite momentous as it infused qualities of both the combat sports disciplines. With 7 fights lined up at Globelife Field, the event saw a footfall of over 20,000 viewers.

Rampage Jackson, who was busy leading the promotional aspect of the tournament, did not take part in any of the matches as a fighter. However, the entire event impressed him. He said, “I think UFC and Bellator should be worried right now, honestly.”

How Did Quinton Jackson’s team fare in the event?

The event concluded with team MMA winning 4 of the 7 matches in the triangle-shaped ring on the weekend.

Former UFC professionals Albert Tumenov and Mike Perry graced the event who, along with Bellator regular Derek Campos and Alexa Culp, comprised the four MMA victors at the promotion.

“I saw some of the MMA fighters doin really good, Umm… Albert ‘Einstein,’ he did a great job”– “Rampage” Jackson reacted to team MMA’s win.

Quinton Jackson versus Shannon Briggs

“Rampage” Jackson, who has been an MMA fighter for most of his life, got into a scuffle with “The Cannon” Shannon Briggs at the onset of the event. Ever since then, the former light heavyweight champion has been going at him whenever he gets the chance.

Last week, “Rampage” shared a post on Instagram and wrote, “Next week i finally get to meet the clown(Shannon Briggs) that keeps trolling me at the triller fight club event. I’ve been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. For all the fans that wants to see me stomp a mud hole in this chump let Triller know what’s up.”

They even had an altercation a day before the event. Given the feud, Triller could look to book a bout between these two under Triad Combat rules at a future event.
