Quinton “Rampage” Jackson was the UFC’s light heavyweight champion and one of the biggest names in Dana White‘s promotion. However, he became famous on the internet as the guy who demolished a door with his bare hands. The 46-year-old former champion recently made an appearance on Joe Rogan‘s podcast where they talked about the incident.
Rampage Jackson recently sat down for a conversation with Joe Rogan on The Joe Rogan Experience. During their conversation on the #159 MMA Show of the podcast, Joe Rogan brought up Jackson’s highlight moment at ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ when he broke the door and his hilarious reaction to it.
When you were on The Ultimate Fighter with Rashad and you broke that door, I was like they need to get new contractors. That’s the cheapest f****** door I have ever seen in my life.

Jackson replied that he was still embarrassed about the incident. The former champion termed it one of his most embarrassing moments on TV. Jackson revealed that he had lost relationships and friendships because of losing his temper.
Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s door-breaking incident happened during Season 10 of “The Ultimate Fighter” (TUF). He was one of the coaches, leading a team of Dana White’s fighters. In a moment of frustration, he kicked a door after his team lost a challenge and then proceeded to violently break it.
