Former UFC champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson has broken his silence about his son Raja’s ongoing legal troubles, revealing the emotional toll the situation has taken on his entire family during a recent livestream session.
Speaking directly to viewers with visible frustration, Jackson made it clear that he and his other children should not be held responsible for Raja’s actions. “Don’t threaten me and my other kids, and we had nothing to do with none of this s**t,” Jackson stated during the broadcast.
The MMA legend didn’t mince words when discussing his son’s behavior, openly acknowledging Raja’s pattern of poor decision-making. “Raja’s a f*** up. He f*** up everything, so f*** that. I’m over this s**t,” Jackson said.
The case stems from an incident involving wrestler “Syko Stu” that has since escalated to state-level prosecution. Jackson previously confirmed speaking with detectives and acknowledged the mounting evidence against his son, stating that the case had been picked up by California state authorities.
What has particularly troubled Jackson is the harassment his family has been receiving. The former champion revealed that his relatives have been subjected to racist threats, which he attributed to misinformation circulating on social media platforms. This harassment appears to have pushed Jackson to his breaking point, leading to his decision to address the situation publicly.
Despite the gravity of his son’s legal situation, Jackson emphasized his commitment to moving forward positively. “You know what I’m focused on? I’m focusing on bettering myself and streaming for you guys and being a more positive person, being more positive energy, because I like laughing when people laugh,” he explained to his audience.
The emotional weight of the situation became evident as Jackson discussed his priorities as a father. “I’d rather go to prison than go through the morgue or bury one of my kids,” he said.
Jackson’s public statements represent a shift from his earlier social media posts, where he had attempted to provide context for the incident. Now, he appears focused on distancing himself and his other children from Raja’s legal troubles while dealing with the ongoing harassment his family faces.
The case continues to develop as state authorities pursue prosecution, with Jackson having previously acknowledged that jail time appears inevitable for his son.
