Coach: ‘Rampage’ Jackson will weigh ‘around 260’ for Fedor Emelianenko fight

Quinton Jackson is really committing to his heavyweight fight with Fedor Emelianenko.

Two legends of PRIDE will go to war on Saturday at Bellator & Rizin: Japan (also known as Bellator 237: Fedor vs. Rampage). The fight will be contested at heavyweight and Jackson has really committed to the move, according to strength and conditioning coach Sam Calavitta.

“I have to tip my hat to him because he stepped into the gauntlet with the toughest and the most brazen guys he could step in with in the garage where there’s nothing but sweat and soul-searching,” Calavitta told MMA Junkie.
