In case you didn’t know, Rashad Evans and Rampage Jackson hate each other.  During their stint as coaches on the Ultimate Fighter season 10, the two spent 95% of the time exchanging insults and almost coming to blows more then once. And the derogatory running commentary has continued unabated in the months since TUF 10 ended, even when it looked like Jackson was giving up fighting to become an actor.

When the two agreed to fight on the UFC 114 card, it was no surprise that the two were back at the arguing.

“(Beating Evans will) be like a moral victory for me,” Jackson said. “Rashad, he has no title. He couldn’t even hold onto the belt after one fight. Why am I even fighting this guy? Then I did The Ultimate Fighter and I know why I’m fighting this guy. Because I want to teach guys like this a lesson — to keep his mouth shut when you aren’t on the same level as the next man.

“It’s not up there with a title shot or even a big accomplishment. Who is this guy? He has done nothing compared to what I’ve done. I’m the first ever undisputed champion of my sport. So fighting this guy is kind of like a step backwards.”

The bad blood between these two doesn’t run one way, as Evans had much to say about Rashad as well.

“It’s just the way he is — just like that last comment,” Evans said. “Who am I to fight him? Who is he to fight me? I beat Forrest (Griffin). You didn’t beat Forrest, bro. You lost. You almost got finished in the second round.”

So as the two are set to square off tomorrow evening, will the hype sell this fight?
