    Uh...

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>It has just been reported by TMZ.com that former undisputed UFC light heavyweight champion Quinton"Rampage" Jackson has been charged with a felony hit and run in and felony evading arrest in Newport Beach, California. Jackson had apparently been involved in a car crash and subsequently left the scene. He then proceeded to evade the police until they finally caught up to and arrested the fighter.

    We'll have more details as they arise.</div>

    If you're driving that, how would you think you would be able to get away with anything...ever?

    That is a great damn question...

    In the future he is going to have to make a major joke out of this, it's too funny not to be made humorous. How are you going to run from the cops...in that? How do you even contemplate hiding a vehicle like that? I don't want to throw out any false news or anything, but being curious about the further details that will be coming out over the next few days about this arrest, I am purely speculating with these comments, maybe he was in possession of some illegal narcotics? I don't see why you would try to run from the cops if you've got nothing to hide...especially in that.

    I think it's kind of ironic that Forrest Griffin is an ex-cop, and now this happens.

    Rampage is gon whoop some ass! in prison!

    I sold him that car...

    But yea, like you've all said, how do you do anything in that. That's why I want a slick race car so I can hide it.

    did you seriously sell him that car?

    anywho, this is bad news. I was hoping to see Rampage fight in the near future. You guys think MMA is a big enough sport that Rampage will get away with only doing some community service or something minor?

    I'm dying.

    He's got his name and a life size picture of himself on his truck!

    This is like something out of a hilarious movie.

    lol no he didn't sell him that truck. Lol that probably is one of the worst vehicles to run from the police with. It has a big 'ol picture of Rampage right on it.

    If they didn't have guns, Rampage would have whooped their asses.

    Haha yea,

    When I first saw the truck, I thought Rampage was standing beside it without his shirt posing as police surrounded the vehicle.

    In this one, the cops look like they're thinking the poster is the real guy. [​IMG]

    Even if his picture wasn't on that truck, you still can't hide from anyone in that.

    Nah, I think they're just checking to see if there is anyone else in the vehicle, and his picture is on the door thus creating the illusion.

    I don't see any bullet holes, so that's most likely the case.

    Wow, this is awful.

    Does he have priors?
