    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>On the issue of troubled light-heavyweight Quinton (Rampage) Jackson, White said the former champion is physically fine.

    Jackson was hospitalized for a mental health evaluation after he was arrested last month in Costa Mesa, Calif., after a five-kilometre chase that began as the result of two freeway collisions and another crash when he allegedly ran red lights in his pickup truck, according to police.

    Jackson was booked for investigation of felony evading, reckless driving and hit and run, and released on US$25,000 bail.

    ''It wasn't psychiatric at all, it was physical,'' said White. ''He had a physical condition - exhaustion, dehydration that caused delirium.''

    The alleged incident happened after Jackson lost his title July 5 to Forrest Griffin in Las Vegas.

    White said Jackson, a California native, had remained in Las Vegas for a week after the fight and was fasting - living on energy drinks alone.

    ''Bad combination,'' said White.

    ''Physically and mentally he's OK. Now he's got some legal problems, obviously.''</div>
