UFC 114 - Quinton Jackson vs Rashad Evans Video ONLINE

Rashad Evans def. Quinton Jackson -- Unanimous Decision

What happened: The grudge match with “Rampage” played out in much the same fashion as Evans’ fight against Thiago Silva in January. For two rounds, he used his movement on the feet, his wrestling and his wall-and-stall to control the pace and whereabouts of the match. In the third stanza, Rampage shot him down with a short right hook. Jackson, who stars as B.A. Baracus in the forthcoming “A-Team” movie, could not put away his rival with ground-and-pound and went on to lose a unanimous decision.

Forecast for Evans: He will get a second shot at UFC gold when he faces champion Mauricio “Shogun” Rua sometime in 2010, perhaps in the UFC 119 main event at Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis in September. Indianapolis stands just 250 miles from Evans’ old stomping grounds in Lansing, Mich.

Forecast for Jackson: The last time “Rampage” lost a decision inside the Octagon he came back with a vicious knockout over Wanderlei Silva. His next opponent better brace himself. As a former champion in his prime, it only makes sense for Jackson to fight other elite light heavyweights. That narrows down the list to Forrest Griffin, Lyoto Machida and Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.
