Straight to the story; YOW... Juanito was ripping Rampage off $30,000 per trip to Big Bear... that's sleazy man. No wonder Rampage went off the deep end. You put so much trust in a guy and he's ripping you off like that. Who knows what other slimy things he's done. This doesn't excuse Rampage's driving spree, but it does offer some insight as to why he flipped out.
We know that Rampage said he was betrayed by someone close to him and that he has parted ways with Ibarra, but the details should remain private. Its really none of our business what went on between Juanito and Rampage and Tito Ortiz is an attention whore for spreading this rumour.
I'm glad Tito brought this public, honestly. I don't think there was any doubt that Jaunito was ripping off Rampage, but I think a lot of people wanted to know to what extend. If Tito is telling the truth, which I think he is, now we know. That is such a sleezy thing for Ibarra to do to Rampage...a man that Rampage looked @ as a father figure.
For sure. Its not like JB wasn't already taking a good % of Rampage's earnings as his trainer and manager. Not to mention whatever he makes from other fighters in the camp such as Cheick Kongo--who I presume is going to bail out.
I agree that it wasn't totally Tito's business, but it kind of was. Rampage thought he was paying Tito 65K to train at big bear, when that's not true. If Rampage told other fighters it cost that much, it may have cost Tito $ and some training partners. On top of that Juanito needed to be exposed so other fighters didn't get screwed over by him.
Well when JB resigned I presume that means he retired from training UFC fighters, but I could be wrong.
of course he's a phony two-bit sleazeball so him 'un-retiring' to rip off a few more fighters would be no surprise....
I agree that Tito is an attention whore lol. He also is publicizing his own camp with this media grab. I mean I`m sure that Rampage could have named out who backstabbed him, but he chose not to.
30k for one training trip is ridiculous. Makes that 9k the average fighter earns seem even more miniscule. One more thing, Ibarra is an asshole for ripping off Rampage like that. I'd suggest Rampage go and break his legs but hes already in enough legal troubles.
Kongo has gone to Wolfslair with Jackson, so it looks like Ibarra is either done or just losing his fighters.
