Former UFC champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson has apologized and said that he is “very upset” after his son allegedly committed what organizers called “a selfish, irresponsible act of violence” against a wrestler during an event Saturday night in Sun Valley,

Rampage Jackson apologized on social media on behalf of his son and said the incident was a miscommunication. He said his son was unexpectedly hit in the head moments before Smith's match and was told that he could get his "payback" in the ring as part of the show.

Quinton Jackson and the promotion that held the show said the incident involving Raja Jackson and wrestler Stuart “Syko Stu” Smith appeared to be a case of a planned spot gone wrong.
