Former UFC champion Rampage Jackson believes the Earth is flat.
The flat Earth debate is one people have been having for centuries, but most do believe the Earth is round as shown by satellite photos. However, Jackson says the Bible says the Earth is flat, so he doesn’t get why people get so mad at him when he just believes what the Bible says.

“This is the thing about the whole ’round Earth/flat Earth’ thing, why do people care if people believe in the Earth the way Bible describes it? Why do people get so mad about that?… Why do people get mad at people if they just describe the Earth the way the oldest history book described it?,” Jackson said on Brendan Schaub’s podcast.
When asked if he believes the Earth is flat, Rampage Jackson was quick to reply yes.
“Yeah, yeah I do,” Jackson added.
Not only does Jackson think the Earth is flat, but he believes outer space is not real, and instead, that is all made up as well.
“No, no, the sun is real,” Jackson said. “The sun and the moon is real, but outer space is not.”
It’s an interesting take from Jackson and after his comment, many people on social media blasted him for believing that the Earth is flat.
