Former UFC champion Rashad Evans never closed the door on fighting again but now he’s kicking it wide open with plans to face off with former foe Quinton “Rampage” Jackson in a boxing match.
Talks for the fight have circled for months, but Evans revealed that he’s already started his training camp with proposed date and location in the works.
“You’ll be interested to hear that I’ve jumped into training camp, and I’m going to do a boxing match with ‘Rampage,’” Evans told MMA Fighting. “We’re looking to do it potentially at the end of February, and it’s most likely going to be here in Florida. We’re going to do a boxing match.”
Rumors about the boxing match between the ex-UFC fighters started several months ago with ONE Championship actually showing interest in potentially promoting the fight.
