Jackson delivered a slam and then unleashed a series of punches on Smith, who lay unresponsive on the mat.

The remarks came weeks after Raja stormed into a Knokx Pro Wrestling ring, slammed Smith, and delivered a flurry of punches that left the wrestler hospitalized with facial fractures.

Speaking about the incident during an appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show, Jackson said:

"He should go to jail, not prison. I think that he should do a little time, do a little community service, go to anger management class and therapy. It wasn't attempted murder. He wasn't trying to kill that guy. That's my son. I know my son. ... Raja probably didn't even know how bad he hurt that guy."
