Mixed Martial Arts has its first public black eye.

It is sad that an entire sport can sometimes be put on trial (so to speak) for the actions of one or a handful of players. The Tour De France is riddled with speculation of just how common doping is, football has taken a hit over Michael Vick’s dog fights and the numerous players who have been accused of domestic violence, boxing had to deal with an ear being bitten off, and tons of colleges have athletes each year that are accused of rape. All of these incidents reflect poorly on their respective sport.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA ) is the new sport on the block and MMA is facing the first big publicity problem. Former UFC light heavyweight champion, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, has been arrested on charges of felony evading, reckless driving and hit-and-run. Apparently he took his nickname a little too seriously.

While Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is innocent until proven guilty I think the powers that be need to act quickly in dealing out punishment. MMA is already seen as a violent sport by many. It is said to be the fastest growing sport in the world and as such it should send a very clear message to all up and coming fighters that their out of ring behavior cannot be reckless.

Fair or not a sport is judged by its superstars and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson was one of the best known MMA fighters. He recently lost his title and I think this incident may be related to that defeat.
