UFC has been advised of the New Jersey state court’s ruling in the matter between Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and Bellator MMA. The UFC organization was surprised about the ruling because Mr. Jackson represented to UFC on multiple occasions that he was free to negotiate and contract with UFC. The UFC organization is also surprised that Bellator sat on its alleged rights for months before taking action. UFC understands that Mr. Jackson is considering an emergency appeal, and UFC is also considering action to protect its rights and minimize damages regarding this matter. UFC 186 in Montreal, Canada will proceed as planned and UFC is currently evaluating its fight card options.

Whoever had "Zuffa signed him to use him being barred from fighting in the lawsuit"
You just won the prize for most obvious legal tactic ever attempted, hopefully a judge sees how transparent this is too.
Even when they try to be slick, they can't do it subtle, they do it with a sledgehammer. "Rampage told us he was free to come to us, honest we believed him, d'oh lesson learned guise"
It's like watching a coporate version of a Marx brother's film.
