This could be an interesting match if Fickett can keep it standing. I didn't realize Drew Fickett was no longer under UFC contract.
fickett has been gone for a while. he fought on elitexc/strikeforce's card back in march. he was supposed to fight jake for the elite ww title but i think he withdrew because of injury anyway, taylor was my pcik from the start to win tuf. i lost a lunch on his dumb butt. he still entertains me though
Not a big Taylor fan. I'm so sick of the wrestlers that don't have any other skills laying on top of people. I'm glad that MMA is more mainstream now, but the way they had to tame the game down gave the biggest advantage to the wrestlers.
When Jesse Taylor purposely pissed himself on TUF, any sense of "maturity/respect" he could've garnered trickled down his legs.
