GRAPHIC: UFC Fighter’s Son Attacks Professional Wrestler During Live Match

This was absolutely uncalled for.

A horrific video shows the son of former UFC fighter Rampage Jackson attacking a professional wrestler.

In the video, Raj Jackson is seen sneaking into the wrestling ring and body slamming pro wrestler Syko Stu.

It doesn’t stop there.

Raj Jackson then repeatedly punched Stu in the face until he no longer appeared conscious.

The New York Post provided more details on the horrific attack:

Unsettling video from a pro wrestling event in California shows the son of UFC great Quinton “Rampage” Jackson pummeling a wrestler to the point that he appeared unconscious in a moment that was allegedly unscripted.

Raja Jackson went into the ring to take down bearded wrestler Syko Stu at KnokX Pro’s KnokXperience event on Saturday in Sun Valley that was streamed on Kick after Stu hit Jackson in the head with a can outside the venue earlier in the night.

But Jackson pelt Stu with more than 20 punches that appeared real — and the wrestler seemed to be knocked out before others pulled Jackson away.

Rampage Jackson addressed the incident in an early-morning tweet Sunday, stating that Stu was in stable condition.

Here’s a video of the attack:

First, Raja Jackson, the son of Quinton “Rampage” Jackson, belongs in prison.

Second, why do MULTIPLE pro wrestlers wait until Raja hits their friend with more than 20 REAL punches before doing anything? There’s one guy there—and he actually gives up. https://t.co/ViVqSqy3HO

This interaction reportedly started the feud:

The father of Raj, has apologized for his son’s action, according to CNN:

Former UFC champion Quinton “Rampage” Jackson has apologized and said that he is “very upset” after his son allegedly committed what organizers called “a selfish, irresponsible act of violence” against a wrestler during an event Saturday night in Sun Valley, California.

Footage from the event posted on social media showed Jackson’s son, Raja Jackson – a professional MMA fighter – sliding into the ring during another bout and throwing Syko Stu, whose real name is Stuart Smith, to the mat.

The video, which bears a watermark suggesting it was livestreamed on the video platform Kick, showed Jackson straddling Smith before repeatedly punching him in the face and the side of his head, even when Smith was lying motionless. Other wrestlers then restrained Jackson.

CNN has not been able to independently verify the video and Raja Jackson’s profile no longer exists on Kick. CNN has reached out to the platform for comment.

“I don’t condone my son’s actions AT ALL!” Rampage Jackson wrote in a post to X on Sunday morning, in which he claimed that Smith was awake and stable.

“He (Raja Jackson) suffered a concussion from sparring only days ago and had no business doing anything remotely close to physical contact.

“As a father, I’m deeply concerned with his health AND the well-being of Mr. Smith.
