This season on The Ultimate Fighter the entertainment value of the show rested less on the quality of the fights and more on the increasingly heated verbal sparring between the two coaches, Rashad Evans and Rampage Jackson. Sure, there was still a competition aspect and the winner of this Saturday’s fight still gets a $100,000 UFC contract, but we’re really tuning in to hear what crazy or asinine thing coach Quinton “Rampage” Jackson is going to say next.

Of course, all that build up and bickering is for naught. Since Rampage has decided he is done with his fighting career and moving on to acting (naturally), the coaches won’t be settling the score in the customary coaches’ fight after the show ends. But that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a bit of his hard-hitting dialogue. Read on for a collection of our favorite Rampage quotes from this TUF season, in all their grammatically incorrect splendor:

• “I feel like going over there, pulling down my pants and fart right on all their heads. Doing just a ghettoblaster.” So mature, Rampage. That is a great way to earn your team’s respect. And how dare you demean the ghettoblaster like that?

• “Now, he want to take up for Titties [referring to ample chested fighter Daryl Schoonover]. Probably cuz he’s jealous cuz Titties got titties and he ain’t got no titties. You know Rasahad likes playing with his nipples. I bet he wish he had some titties to play with.” That’s six “titties” and one “nipples” in one conversation. Congrats, Rampage, you managed to use the word “titties” more than the script for the AVN awards.

• “You wanna hop, froggy?” Possibly the weakest threat of all times.

• “I watch volleyball sometimes when the women be wearing the black volleyball shorts and they butt cheeks be hanging out.” Pure class.

• “When I saw Marcus [Johnson] fell, I just swallowed my whole heart. I don’t know what my heart was doing up there anyway, but I felt it go down my esophagus.” Too bad there’s no openings on Grey’s Anatomy, Rampage would be a shoo-in.

Opposing coach Rashad Evans also got in on the funny one-liner action with my new favorite euphemism for someone going crazy: “His cheese fell off his cracker.” Tune into Spike this Saturday night to see the exciting conclusion of The Ultimate Fighter and matchups between Matt Hamill and Jon Jones plus a catchweight fight between Kimbo Slice and Houston Alexander.
