Juanito Ibarra Wishes Quinton Jackson “Nothing But The Best”
“I’m devastated by what he’s been through and some of the things I’ve heard. I’ve not sat down with Quinton to this day to discuss things. I pray for his well-being, and if I helped Quinton out a little bit with his growth in the sport, then I’ve been very blessed and honored to do that. I love this kid with all my heart, and I wish him nothing but the best.
I’m not going to get in to storytelling. … It’s not what I’m about.I haven’t sat down with Quinton Jackson, and I’m not going to hear things through sources and through people. This is a kid I’ve been with for almost four years. I have nothing but love and support for him. All I want for Quinton right now is what’s best for him. Whatever he needs from me in any way, I’m here for him and always have been.”
Juanito Ibarra, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s former trainer, talks to MMAJunkie.com about the former UFC champion’s recent hit-and-run arrest.

SHUT UP!!!!! WHO CARES….
class guy, get well soon rampage as an mma fan i want to see u back in the cage i dont give a sh*t whats happend outside the cage!
…he did. didn’t he?
FUC*K NO HE DIDN’T…
YZFOXRACING,
Obviously you care, u made a comment on this post.
hey dude i am sure he has no desire for gay love so back up.
he should do whatever he wants to do…. if he feels like he should retire than let him….
I’m glad Juanito is showing some class here.
Juanito not a man of his word if dont retire
rampage losing juanito isnt a bad thing at all. he basically trained him through his pride to uc transition and the end of his pride career, once rampage is back on his feet cause he will be sooner than we probably think. hes gonna get picked up by some top trainers, because he can easily afford there facility fees and hes got a huge fanbase, good exposure for the gym.
if juanito helped page out so much with his striking imagine what a new age striking coach could do like shawn tompkins
That comment is like “Have a nice day…” Empty…
I am not a fan of Ibarra but he came across like a human in his statement and that’s nice. I feel Rampage and MMA are better off without Ibarra….maybe not….just my opinion. He reminds me of someone who could be ****ty enough to become MMA’s scummy Don King.
If Randy Couture was in Rampage’s corner instead of Griffin’s, you have to wonder if the outcome would have been different.
MAYBE IT WOULD BUT HE WASN’T GET OVER IT AND LET IT GO ALREADY ITS BEEN LIKE A MONTH ALREADY COME ON IM TIRED OF HEARING ABOUT IT. FORREST WAS THE BETTER MAN.
i dont care what anyone says rampage is the best
205 in the world. i hope he comes back. that title fight was bull **** forrest won the 2nd. besides that rampage did the most damage in the fight
Good for Ibarra. Many people have stated they would retire, Couture, Favre to name a couple… I don’t care one way or the other if someone retires and then gets back in the game. A lot of people when they retire don’t realize how much potential they have left until they are sitting on their couch bored to tears.
ALRIGHT KEV… I AIN’T GOING THERE…
all i got to say is chuck
and that forrest fight was BULL ****
KEEP TELLING YOURSELF THAT…
Had Forest not hurt Rampage’s leg I think the fight may have been Rampage’s to win… however that’s not what happened so I think Forrest did win even though he, perhaps, didn’t do the most damage OTHER than the leg injury that Rampage somehow got over in the later rounds. I knew he was still in that fight when Griffin tried smacking his leg and Rampage dodged and smiled with a wag of his finger… Despite this BS he’s going through now, it’s tough not to love the guy.
ITS JUST GETTING ANNOYING PEOPLE STILL COMPLAIN ABOUT THE FIGHT… GET OVER IT AND MOVE ON…
even with the leg injury i think rampage won your saying get over it. it was one of the biggest fights of the year and the judges got it wrong
wow YZ u no how i feel about the count and hammill now
kev i’d love you to do a play by play on each round and why Rampage won. The fight I saw Forrest won albeit poorly.
Forrest did what he needed to do. Rampage wan’t ready to fight. Too many appearances and cameos and what not. It happens…
It will be thw same for Huerta this weekend.
