I think Jackson does play into the stereotype a little too much. Still though right after Rashad makes an intelligent point he drops an mf bomb. Way to undercut your argument dude.
I think everyone should strive to be more educated. It bothers me to no end when people use loose instead of lose...

Point is, I really do think 'Page plays into the stereotype a little too much. I like it though being from Brooklyn and he has that "edge" and that makes him very memorable! This isn't WWE or anything but com'n...Evans is soo bland!!!

Evans is a coconut, black in the outside and white in the inside thats why he cant stand when Rampage acts the way he does. I hope Page KTFO Evans. Why is he wearing the damn suits who does he think he is Ric Flair? What a fool.

The guy wears a suit to press conferences and interviews so he is a tool??? So I guess GSP, Machida and several other fighters are tools as well because they wear suits all the time.
So according to you in order to be considered black you have to act like a gangbanger? I am just wondering if thats the point you are trying to make.

Rampage does play the stereotype, but I think it's pretty obvious to everyone that he does it, and I honestly think he does it more for entertainment/comedic purposes than for anything else. It's clear that he is an intelligent person. At the same time I think the trash talk between the two is pretty funny, and in this aspect of the fight I feel like Rashad is losing by verbal tko.
I'm a big Rampage fan, but I don't mind Rashad either. I just want to see these two slug it out. Something tells me Rashad may go for the safe route and take this to the ground, if he can.....

I think Rampage knows he is playing a sterotype and tries his best to do it to a T. There are moments when he talks during interviews were you can tell he is a lot smarter then acts. Part of me enjoys the entertainment value of it and another part of me just gets annoyed with it because it comes off as fake. I guess it just depends on the day. But yea Rampage is winning the trash talking battle so far.
As for the fight, I do not think we will see the slugfest everyone wants. Evans and Greg Jackson are too smart to turn this into a slugfest and Evans will do everything he can to get this fight to the ground. This is going to look a lot like Evans v. Silva. Evans is going to control round one and two, Rampage will finally crack him in round three but it will be too little too late.
