Quinton Ramone Jackson (born June 20, 1978, in Memphis, Tennessee), known as “Rampage,” is an American retired mixed martial artist whose slamming power made him a star on both sides of the Pacific. In Japan's Pride he knocked out Chuck Liddell and, at Pride Critical Countdown on June 20, 2004, produced the most famous slam in MMA history, lifting Ricardo Arona out of a triangle choke and knocking him unconscious with a powerbomb slam. Signed by the UFC, Jackson knocked out Liddell again at UFC 71 on May 26, 2007, to win the light heavyweight championship, then unified the UFC and Pride titles by outpointing Pride champion Dan Henderson at UFC 75 in London on September 8, 2007. He lost the belt to Forrest Griffin at UFC 86 and later challenged Jon Jones unsuccessfully. Jackson won Bellator's Season 10 light heavyweight tournament in 2014 and fought the final bout of his career in Saitama, Japan, in December 2019, losing to Fedor Emelianenko. He retired with a 38–14 record.

- Also known as: Rampage
Notes
Jackson's one-bout UFC return in 2015 (a win over Fábio Maldonado at UFC 186) came amid a contract dispute with Bellator; his UFC record stands at 8–5. Curator's Judgment (DRAFT): Jackson's prime fused Pride's spectacle with UFC gold; the Arona slam remains the most replayed knockout of its decade, and the Henderson unification made him, briefly, the undisputed best light heavyweight alive.
