VIDEO: Perpetual hero Rampage Jackson steals the show in the first edition of UFC 186 Embedded

Some man for the craic

The late re-introduction of Quinton “Rampage” Jackson to UFC 186 has arguably saved the card.

The MMA legend has truckloads of personality and his return to the UFC on Saturday night makes the event something of a must-watch.

And he has lost none of his entertainment value if the first episode of UFC 186 Embedded is anything to go by as he calls his manager “an a**hole” for playing a prank on him and enquires about how “nice” the ladies around Montreal are.

125lb champion Demetrious Johnson makes just a few fleeting appearances in the episode while his opponent, Kyoji Horiguchi, explains how he relaxes before fights by watching fishing shows.

Everyone’s favourite brash Brit, Michael Bisping, is his usual confident self as he discusses the punchability of CB Dolloway’s face before the American tells a story about how he and UFC light heavyweight Ryan Bader were arrested dressed as Care Bears.
