Quinton "Rampage" Jackson is returning to Japan afterall, as the UFC has granted his wish of a bout on the UFC 144 card in February. According to a report from ESPN.com, Jackson will take on Ryan Bader on the February 26 card in Saitama, Japan.
Jackson had Tweeted earlier this week that he wasn't going to be on the card, and he wasn't very happy about it, but his frustration may have swayed UFC officials, and he'll look to rebound from a title loss to Jon Jones at UFC 135 in September.
After his own loss to Jones this year, as well as a subsequent loss to Tito Ortiz, Ryan Bader got back into the win column last weekend at UFC 139, knocking out Jason Brilz in the first round.
