He lost most of my respect, and continues to lose it whenever he opens his cocky mouth

Also you can sort of tell that they really do respect their opponent, but they want to stir the pot and give the fans something to talk about. Anyway, that's always the way I've seen it.

Yeah cockiness is good to an extent. I also hope he takes Eastman out. Now that Rampage doesn't have to worry about Chute Boxe hopefully he can rack some wins up. He needs a few matches to build himself up again. I really respect Barnett. I don't really like the throat slit thing he does but he is all about making things exciting and shows nothing but respect toward other fighters  The Japanese people love him too, alot of them have Barnett shirts on at PRIDE events and go crazy when he comes out  |

Loads of joke! He goes on about taking a shit with the belt, sleeping with the belt, f*%king with the belt etc. I think it is healthy to be slightly cocky as it makes the fight a bit more exciting if there is some upset between fighters.

Had me in agreeing until the bolded part. I think his career is feeding off of being a well rounded fighter and the fact that he has beat a laundry list of top fighters. his only true kryptonite has been chute boxe. even if the fight vs chuck had never happened i think he still would be considered to be one the most well rounded fighters

I don't care what mood Rampage is in - he's one of the funniest UFC interviewers to-date.
