- As reported last week, Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Muhammed "King Mo" Lawal had a verbal altercation in a van (watch the video). "King Mo" talked to FightHype about the altercation:

"Rampage contradicts himself. First he said he didn't know who I was and then he said he always pulls for me in my fights until I fight him. He's not even funny anymore mayne. Every time Rampage makes a joke about black people, he talks about our features. He says things that someone in the Klan would say to us. When he made that "black on black crime" comment towards Rashad, I didn't see any black people laughing at that, but the white people was. They say, "Rampage is so cool and so funny." How is that funny? He then said it three or four times. It's a minstrel show.

Anyone that watched that video know he's lying about not knowing who I am. We met before that. But he shouldn't be worried about me. He should be worried about Rashad! My thing is the truth will come out and we will see how it makes us look. Memphis is a highly black-populated area. We'll see how many blacks show up to his fight.

I see people saying this is a publicity stunt. Let me tell you something man. I would rather be unknown and rich than broke and known. I don't care about being noticed. I want to get paid though when I fight. I want to be known as a good fighter. I don't want to be known as the person that got into it with Rampage. Rampage shouldn't care because he's already established. I'm not going to be disrespected though, saying he's better than me and greater than me and shit. I'm a competitor!

It's funny because there are some people that said I should have just took it. That's why they're not fighters. Any fighter is going to stand up to that. I will close with this man. The same people that Jackson entertains are the same people that turned their back on him and clowned him!"
