Quinton Jackson has been a retired fighter for five years but has remained a fan favorite with his ongoing antics outside of the cage. In his most recent stunt, 'Rampage' gifted his 69-year-old father an NSFW cake in a move that only he would pull off.
The former UFC champion shared a post of the occasion on July 10, his father's presumed birthday. The photos and videos Jackson shared on Instagram, including the sex-themed ice cream cake, confused the senior citizen.
Jackson's father was appreciative of the gesture from his son but comedically commented that his mother would likely not approve.

Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson's last MMA fight
At 46 years old, Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson is almost certainly retired despite teasing several odd returns to combat sports competition. Jackson, who won the UFC light heavyweight title in 2007, has not fought in MMA since 2019 in a loss to Fedor Emelianenko at Bellator 237.
Jackson re-signed with Bellator in 2015 after negotiating his release from the UFC. He would go just 2-4 in his second stint with the promotion that would end up being the final act of his career.
After retiring from MMA, Jackson made his debut for the gimmick promotion Fight Circus in 2023, joining forces with Bob Sapp in a 2-vs-2 tag team boxing fight with two other men. 'Rampage' has teased further appearances with the promotion and boxing fights but appears to be officially done with MMA.
