While initial reports from various MMA sites got us worried that Rampage Jackson would not be sporting the signature B. A. Baracus fro-hawk and gaudy jewelery collaberation, ET proved them wrong when they visited the set of the new A-Team movie yesterday.


Mr. T as B.A. Baracus in the original A-Team

Jackson is the spitting image of a modern Mr. T. The 2009 Baracus is depicted as sporting a chin strap and goatee as well as some cheek-bone-framing-chops that are more Rampage than Kimbo. Along with the facial hair is the fro-hawk only minus the 20-pounds of gold around his neck.



The original A-Team was a little before my time, but with Rampage Jackson, Bradly Cooper, and Jessica Biel in the cast, I'm looking forward to the twenty-first century edition.

A tremendous story of a girl from Little Rock, Arkansas who in a few short years has become one of the top grapplers in the world. It goes to show that with dedication anything is achievable. As a purple belt she competed against black belts and won her first match against Megumi Fujii of Japan with a slick rear naked choke. She lost her semi-final match, but rebounded to win her 3rd place match and the Bronze Medal. ADCC is the most prestigous grappling tournament in the world and we are so proud of Hillary!
