OT Raja (Rampage Jackson's son) Knocks out Wrestler

[NoDopeOnSundays]

Probably doesn't happen

Ironically, his punishment will likely be worse because ... He streamed it all on camera lol

https://www.reddit.com/r/ufc/s/7Jkb4lamr0

This is a lawyers wet dream

Literally just have to play this gifted evidence and say "and I rest me case"

I mean if anything this shows that what he did was premeditated.

I don't understand what compels someone to do this. This wasn't some heat of the moment incident.

Who knows? But there are a lot of theories running around. Most are centered around him walking around with a lot of pent up anger over being raised by Rampage. And if you dotn know about Ramage, I encourage you to look up all his exploits. He's not somebody I would want as a dad...

Ofcourse this doesnt excuse Raja's actions. But that might explain his very fragile ego and childlike perception on what constitutes as masculine behavior. A bit of restraint would have made all the difference here...

Rampage is an **** and a piece of ****, but anytime someone is streaming like that always expect them to play things up for the camera. He took a situation that wasn't hostile and turned it into an uneasy one because he's streaming and he knows the chat will react to that. The guy apologized several times and it didn't matter because the **** has to play it up for the chat.

The same thing happened with his son, he was streaming, getting amped up and performing for the chat. It's only a matter of time before someone very popular kills someone else on a livestream because they were egged on by the chat.

Please don't take offense but how can anyone believe anything of this story is real??? I mean this looks staged af. The scene is so poorly written, it remembered me of a porn scene. You don' know me? Then "eat" this...
The black dude even sees the can coming and doesnt move a bit. Awesome reflexes for a pro mma fighter.
He isn't even hitting him properly, while he sits on top of him and nobody is holding him back. He only conmects on a few swings at the beginning and at the the end.

What am I missing?

you cant be sesrious right now...


the dude is knocked out from the slam (watch his head) and ate at least 20 punches to the head while unconscious. wtf are you talking about

[Adelheid]

Even if this was in his own sport. I just dont like the sport. Its engrained in that sport that after you knock a guy out, its clear the dude wouldn't stand on a count and then you land one more shot or two while theyre looking at stars. And those are the organized fights. Who's gonna stop them in unorganized settings?

There's no honor in it.

in mma, should one competitor be put on his back on the ground, the other fighter can land blows but the ref will quickly stop the match if one of the fighters appear unconscious

The knock outs in MMA are brutal.

You've got the initial blow that knocks the fighter out, then the impact of their head hitting the canvas, and then the "super necessary" clubbing shots to the head that rain down before the refs calls the fight.

Yet I still think it's safer than boxing where the head damage just accumulates over the course of several rounds. Two guys died this month on the same card in Japan and another guy died in February.

A Mandela moment for me; went a whole day thinking it was about Reggie Jackson's son!

I kinda see what he's saying , the part with the can did look staged with the way Raja just stood there. But those punches were 100% real.

Any arsehole could punch an unconscious man until he's brain dead. Nobody good would do that kind of thing as payback for what he did.

I'm shocked that this kind of fighting attracts some bad characters. Shocked, I tell you!

If Raja doesn't go to jail for that assault, it's a major failure of our judicial system. Wrestlers are strong but they're not real fighters. Sure, they could lift and slam someone, but they're not necesarily able to fight the way MMA fighters can. For any professional boxer or fighter to attack a civilian without adequate provocation is like a regular person using a weapon. There's no way Raja didn't know this. What he did is criminal and a stain on his sport.

Also, I wonder if this has any effect on pro wrestling fans -- some of them believed that wrestlers are great fighters. But if they''re into the fantasy of wrestling, then maybe reality isn't a big issue and they'll keep on watching and believing.

When to his defense, the wrestler didnt even have an opportunity to fight. Also the guy that broke it up seemed to hold his own for a bit.

I don't know how deep into the illusion today's fans are. Most of these guys can't fight for sh*t. They're just big and bar brawl tough.

As a former pro wrestling fan from the late 80s-90s and the very very early 00s...I can count the guys who i watched that actually can fight on one hand.

Like Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle are the first guys that come to mind as legit. Ken Shamrock too. Those dudes were no joke. Lesnar is physically just too damn big to the point where if he were coming after me i'd have to shoot him. Not even joking. That's one man I would not mess with.

And in his prime Kurt Angle would destroy pretty much all of the guys he wrestled back in the day in WWF/E outside of Brock. Fighting an Olympic gold medalist wrestler is a good way to end up paralyzed.

Rhonda Rousey on the women's side is the only legit tough that I can think of.

[MrDollarBills]

But yeah. I'm at a loss as to how this guy isn't being charged and booked by now?

I've seen people beaten up before, so I'm not some prude that can't stomach violence. Quite the opposite, I'm a life long boxing fan. But to see that happen to someone who was clearly thinking the kid was gonna stick to the script and instead got nearly beaten to death just doesn't sit right with me. That was a bitch ass thing to do to another human being.

Based on what's been shown so far, this guy should be in jail. And I'm a rampage Jackson fan, during his Pride days at least.

But I think you have an incredibly important point. The youth these days are stupid as ****. We've now switched to an attention economy, after the information economy recently ended.

The guy Johnny somali is a great example. I hope he gets life in prison with what he's been doing to the Japanese and korean culture over there.

ever since i have seen the video of the incident from here, i have been watching clips from various streamers commenting about the event....and this thing gets uglier and uglier as time goes on.

Lol yeah. You can't fake those kinda punches

The only angle where this can be deemed fake is if you think this is some seriously good A.I.

He should go to jail and it sure don't do nuthin for race relations, even if it wasn't connected.

This is not a racial issue. Very weird comment.

This will probably be good for the "it's still real to me damnit" crowd. They'll use this as an excuse for why wrestling is real (the stories and contact )

Other than them, I'm pretty sure everybody who likes ProWrestling knows it's fake and these wrestlers are probably aren't legit fighters

And it's not like this was WWE. This seems like some random local promotion.

But yeah, if somebody like John Cena or the Rock got their ass whooped on camera by randoms (and I mean in a fair fight), I could see fans getting turned off by it

I heard backstage Chris Jericho and Booker T could give out some whoopings

Anyways, I think it's known that for every Brock Lesnar or Kurt Angle, there's probably 20 CM Punks. And for the most part, fans are cool with that.
