Wherever Quinton "Rampage" Jackson and Rashad Evans go, tension and a lot of smack talk is sure to follow. A recent media conference call promoting their UFC 114 bout turned into one of the most contentious UFC media conference calls in recent memory.

Within minutes of the call, the two fighters were at each other's throats, with Rampage accusing Rashad of not "having fought anybody yet," and mocking Evans' losing the title in his first defense. Evans got a lot more personal, stating that Rampage puts up a front and acts like he's stupid because he's black.

"Well, he does his little Sambo thing, man... He does his little Sambo thing like he act like 'oh black-on-black crime', 'oh I'm stupid you can't use big words like that,' [referring to a comment Rampage made earlier in the call] like he don't know what the f--k is going on," said Evans, transcribed by Fighter's Only Magazine.

"Man, come on dude. I talked to this dude. This dude is pretty smart... he knows what's going on. But he just doing 'oh it's comedy' - well why perpetuate the stereotype that you're stupid? You ain't stupid... Why perpetuate the stereotype that you can't think, [that] you don't understand big words, you can't read. All of that stupid stuff man."

Rampage responded by accusing Evans of having no sense of humor, and then went on to call Evans "gay" for the tight vale tudo shorts he wears when fighting. Evans responded by saying that he would put "[my] balls in your mouth," opening Rampage up to responding, "Yeah, that would give you a hard-on!"

Evans faces Rampage in the main event of UFC 114: Rampage vs. Evans, which takes place this Saturday from the MGM Grand Garden Arena Las Vegas, Nevada. As always, FightLine.com will provide live coverage of the event.

Whitey cannot weigh in on this subject. Unless you listen to rap music....right Wolf?

No, whitey can, B-Rads like you can't.

a solid shot by shad in this war of words, but then he let page drag him down with the gay critique. "i'm not gay but I will put my balls in your mouth" Sounds pretty gay to me.

I for one agree with what Rashad says, I also agree with King Mo when he says Rampage can't stand to see other black men in the spotlight.

Yo I for one think other than the initial face off, Rashad has been pretty much having his way with Rampage in the war of words. On the TUF show I'd certainly give Rashad a smack advantage.

I don't know what the reasons are, but Page does seem to target black fighters specifically.

It is because he lost early on to Marvin Eastman

ahahha oh man, what a stupid argument

I aint gay, Ima put my nuts on yo face

He was all over Kimbo's nuts on TUF though

pfft, i accuse both of them in engaging in a completely staged feud conveniently between two bald black guys.

Kimbo was never a serious threat to his status as the biggest bestest baddest black fighter ever though, Rampage was taking Kimbo under his wing. King Mo, Rashad, these kind of guys make him nervous because they don't go around kissing Rampage's ass like Kimbo obviously would have, and because they're legitimate threats to his status. Watch him go after Bones next.

Anyone else think Rashad acts a bit fake?

They both do. Page is faker though through sheer slapstick zanyness.

Rampage has a black fighter version of Eminem's white-rapperitus. Remember how he fueded exclusively with all the most soft white ass crackaz around?

Rampage has been say since way back in Pride that he wants to be the only dominant black fighter, and not through subtle talk, he has said,"I want to be the only black great fighter" nothing new cause of his dislike for Evans or anything.

LMAO watch Rampage's interview on the front page of ESPN.com

"I got a job to do. I'm coming to destroy him. But Rashad is going for dancing around and playing with his nipples and stuff like that"
