Quinton “Rampage” Jackson wants to be well-prepared when he fights Mauricio “Shogun” Rua, and taking a fight with the UFC light-heavyweight champion on short notice runs contrary to that plan.

Jackson today responded to Rua’s revelation that “Rampage” turned down a title shot that subsequently was given to Jon “Bones” Jones at UFC 126. The title-fight slot opened when Rashad Evans recently went down with a knee injury.
