A clip shows Jackson get visibly annoyed and approaching to fight after Smith striked Jackson in the head before the pair had to be separated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">Jackson\u2019s father, Quinton took to <a class=\"anchor_link__6t7IO\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unilad.com\/social-media\">social media<\/a> to give an update following the incident. He reaffirmed Sapp\u2019s comments and said the attack was \u2018a work that went wrong\u2019 and added that Smith is now \u2018awake and stable\u2019 after going to the hospital.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-image_articleImage__eyzAn\">\n<div class=\"article-image_imageWrapper__ANtPE\">\n<div class=\"resizable-image_wrapper__LRQlr\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto; display: block; margin: 1em auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/images.ladbible.com\/resize?type=webp&amp;quality=1&amp;width=3840&amp;fit=contain&amp;gravity=auto&amp;url=https:\/\/images.ladbiblegroup.com\/v3\/assets\/blt949ea8e16e463049\/blte2b9d20c80395d99\/68ab2799cba3e156cc14d630\/wrestling_assault.png\" alt=\"The fighter is reprimanded by the person on other end of the phone after the incident (@DahtSick\/Twitter)\" data-chromatic=\"ignore\" data-nimg=\"fill\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><cite class=\"image-credit_imageCredit__YMlqS\">The fighter is reprimanded by the person on other end of the phone after the incident (@DahtSick\/Twitter)<\/cite><\/div>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">Issuing a full statement, Quinton said: \u201cI want to clear up the misinformation about my son Raja. I\u2019ve been confirmed that the wrestler (Stewart Smith aka Syko Stu) is awake and stable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;Raja was unexpectedly hit in the side of the head by him moments before Smith\u2019s match, Raja was told that he could get his \u201cpayback\u201d in the ring, I thought it was apart of the show.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;It was bad judgement, and a work that went wrong. Raja is a MMA fighter not a pro wrestler and had no business involved in an event like this.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">&#8220;I don\u2019t condone my son\u2019s actions AT ALL! He suffered a concussion from sparring only days ago and had no business doing anything remotely close to physical contact. As a father, im deeply concerned with his health AND the well being of Mr. Smith.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"topics-list_topic__nSIGw\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Raja Jackson has caused mass concern after appearing to violently assault a wrestler during a livestream.
