Fight might be moved due to Rampage's role in A-Team movie.

Great quote in article from Dana White:
"Rampage wants to be a movie star,… He's up for it, and he talked to me, he wants to do this thing, and he's like, 'Listen, man, this is really important to me...there's some sentimental value here for me, me and my Dad grew up watching The A-Team together and we loved it,’” White explained.

"I said, 'Guess what Rashad Evans is thinking about right now? He's thinking about beating your fuckin’ ass. He's not sitting around thinking about him and his mom used to watch the fuckin’ 'Love Boat' together, and he wants to get the role of 'Isaac the Bartender'...you know what I mean?”

They should put stipulations in contracts that movie roles cannot interfere with a fighter's obligations to the company.

Chad Ochocinco can't miss time because he wants to play Urkel in a saved by the bell remake.

I usually don't buy into fighters being afraid of fighters but it is pretty lame that Rampage turned down a title shot against Lyoto citing that he really really wanted a fight with Rashad first. It's personal and all that shit. Now he wants to put that on hold to be in a movie. These guys are fighters, not actors, when are they going to get that?

Im talking about Cung Le as well. That guy talks like he's some big shot actor now when the only reason he is getting roles is BECAUSE HE'S A FIGHTER. Get your ass back in the cage.

I don't know. It would appear he does not want any part of Lyoto. I think there is a strong possibility he just does not care about fighting anymore.

+1 I think his fight career is coming to an end pretty soon and he is starting to venture off into other things now. He needs to be 100 percent into fighting Machida or Rashad or just dont fight. I dont want to hear Rashad knocked me on my ass cause I was trying to be a movie star.

I doubt Rampage is afraid of anybody. He's just been doing this a long time and who knows how much passion he still has for it.

Rampage may or may not be afraid of Lyoto, but he isn't completely retarded and knows his game offers nothing that Rashad's doesn't. How is Page ever gonna win that fight? Page knows his limitations.


Also, Cung has had a long fighting career prior to MMA where he went undefeated. I can understand why he's ready to move on, it just pisses me off because I know that he could have been special had he stuck with MMA for a few years. He has Machida like ability.

Rampage fights for money... not because he has a passion for fighting... if he can get a role in a big time hollywood film I don't blame him for going for it. He's not afraid of anyone.

But I don't think Rampage is actually gonna be in the A-Team movie because I've read other articles that deny it, and imdb has Common or The Game rumored to be playing BA Baracus... Rampage used to be there.

Rampage has been in this role for a while now actually. If he ends up not playing it it's because Dana twists his arm.
