Every episode he annoys me more. I thought Rampage was very cool back when he first came to the UFC and in his Pride days. Now he just gets in people's faces, says he will kick their ass, and quits the UFC.

Not to mention, if I went crazy, killed an unborn baby and thought I was jesus, once I came to my senses I think I would be humble as hell.

His "I am going to not focus on coaching and instead focus on telling everyone what a badass I am" ways are getting really old.

I agree with some of this. Rampages stock has definitely dropped in my book.

[Flou]

I used to like Rampage as well, but after watching last nite's episode of TUF I've had enough of him. His team is losing badly and pretty much every sentence he managed to muster out during the episode involved Titties.
The way he is coaching some of his fighters would lose to a fucking training dummy. But I guess all the smacktalk is just his way to escape the reality that he is getting his ass beat by Team Rashad.
Really don't know if I should feel bad for the guy or not. He clearly has some issues and after seeing 5(?) episodes of this seasons TUF I kinda see why he chose acting instead of fighting Rashad.

I realize that the episode was likely edited to appear as though Rampage was constantly mocking Schoonover, but you'd think he'd be a little more concerned about getting his guy ready (even though he clearly didn't like him as a fighter) than having a cartoonist making a poster about Rashad's team.

Oh well. It'll be nice to see my prediction of Rampage going 0-8 in the preliminaries come true in 2 weeks. I just wonder what some of his guys would've done if they had been on Rashad's team?

[Scrog]

i know they edit the show. they did it to frank mir and some what he said was twisted. like the vinnie having better bjj than nog. that aint what he said. so i am sure rampage's segments have been edited too. however come on, you can only edit so much and being a dick is being a dick. there is no amount of editing they could of done to make rampage look this bad unless he is really just being an asshole. it looks to me like he wanted out completely, even out of the fight with rashad back when this was taped. it takes a real man to run his mouth knowing he aint gonna have to back it up. i just lost any respect i might of ever had for rampage as a fighter and as a person

[Sakara=Excitement]

Funny thing is, this isn't the first time Rampage has fucking sucked at coaching. Team Forrest also went 6-0 when they coached each other. Dude is garbage.

[maxp84z]

Rampage just wanted to coach for selfish reasons. It makes me sick to my stomach. He wanted it to be the Rampage show, screw the fighters.

rampage didnt even wanna coach the show in the first place dana set it up for this whole rashad rampage bullshit that never even happened. I lost respect for Rampage a lil for doing what he did but I dont hate him on the show at all and I would understand if he doesnt wanna be there, he was a fighter not a coach anyways. Hes there for comedic purposes thats what people like and I thought he did a good job, pretty funny.

I don't find him that funny any more. Yes, sometimes he is funny, but he seems to be focusing solely on being funny and he is trying too fucking hard. Saying someone got man boobs 50 times during one episode ain't funny unless you are huge fan of same joke all over again.

Whole season so far has sucked some swedish ass (no offence swedes). Kimbo this, Kimbo that, Tittiiiiies, endless smacktalk by Rampage,endless amount of more or less stupid jokes by Rampage, serious lack of coaching on Team Rampage's guys. But I guess people at Spike are happy. They are prolly getting solid ratings, sucks for the fighters though who are stuck on Team Rampage and to those who actually watch the show to see something else than Rampage acting like a 10 year old kid.

Dan Henderson's team got their asses kicked by Bispings but that didnt effect the end result when they met in the octagon. Say what you like about Page but his coaching abilities has little to nothing to do with his ability to knock Rashads ass out quicker than Machida did.

Rashad is a class act if you think hes any different from the same guy who told Griffin to suck his dick in the middle of the fight. If he had the chance I bet he would have tried the same antics against Machida (oops he tried and got KTFO)
