Jesse Taylor

Former “The Ultimate Fighter 7″ cast member Jesse Taylor, perhaps most famous for getting kicked out of the UFC twice, recently announced he be fighting at the July 20th DREAM 10 event in Japan. He announced the bout via his website, as well as his expected opponent Korean Judoka Dong Sik Yoon.

Taylor is comes into the fight after just having defeated Rubén Darío this past weekend at Total Combat 33 in Mexico City. The “The Ultimate Fighter” alum has gone 6-0 since leaving the UFC following a loss to C.B. Dolloway in July, 2008.

Yoon last competed in September of 2008 in a loss to Andrews Nakahara at DREAM 6 as part of the promotions Welterweight Grand Prix. Yoon was later expected to face Murilo “Ninja” Rua at DREAM 8, but was forced to withdraw due to an undisclosed injury. Yoon only has a 4-6 record, but has faced notables Quinton Jackson(L), Kazushi Sakuraba(L), Melvin Manhoef(W), and Gegard Mousasi(L).

    What a surprise that JT Money rises from the ranks of the mocked and near-forgotten so soon after the douchebag cannons were emptied onto Brock Lesnar last Saturday night.
    Say what you will about Lesnar, and Lord knows that I have, repeatedly, and at great length, but the Vanilla Gorilla doesn’t even begin to compare in terms of douchebaggery to Jesse Taylor.
    Yes, this is almost certainly fighter-bashing, but this guy not only deserves it but brought it on himself with horrific behavior on national television that cast the sport in a poor light and that makes drunken frat guys look like the cast of Masterpiece Theatre…

      not only all that but he isn’t that good of a fighter (imo) This whole time I figured he was in AA or something.

      That pic looks like he has worked out alot harder. for his sake I hope he cleaned up. I don’t ever expect to see him on the big stage again

      Thank you for your insight into this particular MMA fight. Perhaps next you could regale us with an equally thought-provoking speech about the risk-reward rationale for using a kimura?

        Are you trying to be funny? My sarcasm meter is broken today, so please advise Mr. dbizzzz.

  • i retired my fighter bashing a while ago to maintain the professionalism of this great site, but i have to say the Jesse Taylor is a F-DOUCHE, i hope that this one time fighter bash doesn’t hurt my 1st ballad MMA Frenzy Hall Of Fame future induction. :D

    All in favor of banning JT from all MMA sites say I. “I”
    Nobody cares about this d-bag or who he’s fighting.

  • Gunslinger says:

    actually jt money is actually a really good fighter- he beat drew fickett in under two minutes that no easy task my friends….im not a fan of him anyways because seriously jt money is a bad nickname…but you cant deny his skills…hes undefeated since getting neck-tied by my bot CB DOLLAWAY!

    • knightboy says:

      wow i cant believe this but im actually hearin the only creditable words in the room have gunslinger as the name above them. honestly he is not the smartest to come out of the house but power,skill and yes he has a little heart to him. give him a break he was always worried about his new kid and just wanted to be able to take care of his family. hes a terrible moron when drunk but if nobody got to take back things when they were drunk then you would hate everybody. he will always have a good record. i mean he no grey maynard {just kiddin gunslinger} seriously gunslinger is right guys, they usually only have a few people that are not good in the house every season.jt was not that guy and he is a good wrestler just cb is better.

      • fr702 says:
