The
A-Team Trailer that was posted online on Friday gave UFC fans a chance to see some more details about what
Rampage Jackson was doing instead of fighting in 2009: He was driving a van while reciting dialogue like "Sucks to be you, homey" and "You miss me? 'Cause I missed you."

A-Team movie, and it's relevant to MMA solely because it's the film that deprived fans of what would have been one of the biggest fights of the year, Rampage vs. Rashad Evans.
