Just like Rampage, Ortiz also made the move to TNA Wrestling’s Impact.

Bellator has been rumored to be joining the pay-per-view fray, possibly with a Quinton “Rampage” Jackson vs. Roy Jones Jr. in a boxing match… and possibly putting that boxing match up against the UFC’s big year-end pay-per-view, which features the Chris Weidman vs. Anderson Silva and Ronda Rousey vs. Miesha Tate rematches.

According to a report from MMAJunkie.com , Jackson and Jones have agreed to a boxing match at an unspecified weight limit at a Viacom/Bellator produced pay-per-view to close out the year

Viacom is expected to announce plans to go head-to-head with pay-per-view juggernaut Zuffa LLC and its UFC 168 offering at next week’s Bellator 97 event on Spike TV. An unveiling of Bellator fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s plans with the promotion will likely include a pay-per-view boxing match with former multi-division boxing champ Roy Jones Jr., multiple sources close to the event today told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). The fight is expected to take place at the end of the year, though a date and weight class for the bout could not immediately be confirmed.

The rep requested anonymity due to the ongoing negotiations related to the matchup
