The UFC's current Light Heavyweight champion took America by storm despite heavy criticism and ravenous Chuck Liddell fans. He's not "The People's" champ, but he's a force to be reckoned with, and that holds true today after beating Dany "Hollywood" Henderson, PRIDE's Middleweight and Light Heavyweight champion, in a decision match. How long will Rampage last as champ? Who knows, but he's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Jackson outlasts Henderson to unify 205-Pound Belts
ONDON, September 8 - Sometimes history can occur in seconds. Tonight, before a sold-out crowd of 16, 235 at the O2 Arena, it took 25 minutes as Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson became the first man in mixed martial arts history to unify a major title, decisioning Dan Henderson over five hard-fought rounds to defend his UFC light heavyweight championship and take home Henderson's PRIDE 205-pound belt in the process."A lot of people don't know that I've got Jiu-Jitsu," said Jackson, whose ability to fight on the ground with the two-time Olympic wrestler may have been the deciding factor in the bout, which was scored 48-47 and 49-46 twice for the native of Memphis, Tennessee.
