MICHAEL BISPING will become one of the world’s greatest fighters, according to Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson.

The former UFC light heavyweight champion has tipped the British star to take the middleweight division by storm and become one of the planet’s elite grapplers.

Jackson, 30, has been training with Bisping and the rest of the Wolfslair team since dumping former manager Juanito Ibarra in July.

And Jackson told Setanta Sports News’ Ultimate Talk he is relishing being part of his new camp.

He said: “I love the way the guys train at the Wolfslair. I'm learning a lot and I'm anxious to get back out into the Octagon soon.

"Training is very hard, that's why I think Michael Bisping is going to be one of the best fighters in the world.

“But I didn't know these guys trained for three hours a day! I should have checked that out before I joined!”

Despite receiving criticism from some quarters for his decision to join the British camp, Jackson insists training at the Wolfslair will make him a better fighter.

He added: “I'm learning how to swim and it's boosting my fitness. I'll become a better all round fighter training here.

"The manager wakes you up at seven o'clock and he makes you swim or makes you go for a run.

“These guys put their heart, sweat and tears into it. They train really hard and if you want to be the best you've got to train like the best and that's what these guys do.

"The last team I was with was Team Punishment. Tito Ortiz is a good guy - I like him - but a lot of the time it was all about him.

“The Wolfslair is about family."
