Fighter profile of Colby Taylor by Todd Westacott

The Tycoon Times had a chance to sit down with rising star Colby Taylor and discuss the controversy surrounding his upcoming KIFC Bantamweight Championship Unification match against Kamil Decaukas. 

  Colby Taylor: Unification match? Who told you that Kamil?    Interviewer: Well lets get right to the point. What happenned? You beat Toshiro Hitsugaya at KIFC 19 to retain the Bantamweight title... but then Kamil Decaukas defeated Nico Ressler at KIFC 20 and becomes the Bantamweight Champion? I am confused   Colby Taylor: Your confused? I think alot of people are confused. From what my team has been told there was a technical glitch in booking the card. I was originally offered to defend the title at KIFC20 but was then approached by management if I would be willing to move up to KIFC19 and defend against Toshiro. When my slot was rebooked for KIFC20 by some technical glitch it was still listed as the 135 pount title fight and the winner was awarded my title.   Interviewer: So because of a technical glitch Kamil Decaukas is the Bantamweight Champion?   Colby Taylor: Lets get one thing straight! There is only one KIFC Bantamweight Champion! The number one... undefeated...pound for pound fighter on The Island... Yours truly.   Interviewer: Has your team spoken with KIFC ownership and has there been any progress to correct the glitch?   Colby Taylor: Yeah my team has been in constant communication with the KIFC ownership team since KIFC20 to find out what happenned and what can be done. I like Thomas Forrester... he is a good guy to fight for and I feel for him. He has assured my team that he has reached out to Tycoon Mike to correct the issue and in the meantime offered us a fight against Kamil.   Interviewer: And are you happy with that plan? Its gotta bug you when you see Kamil listed as the champ and not you?   Colby Taylor: Like I said... there is only one KIFC Bantamweight champ and you are looking at him! I know it... you know it... the fans know it... and most importantly Kamil knows it!   Interviewer: Has Kamil tried to reach out to you or your team? Do you know if he has acknowledged the situation?   Colby Taylor: I havent heard a word from him or his team.... I havent seen him address it anywhere... have you?   Interviewer: No I have not   Colby Taylor: I mean if he wants to walk around with a fake title like he is the champion then you tell yourself whatever makes you sleep at night. You know its not true....but you tell yourself what you have to!    Interviewer: The winner out of all this has to be Kamil Decaukas though. He clearly has your attention now and has worked his way into a title shot!   Colby Taylor: He isnt going to feel like a winner March 17th! If he wanted my attention he isn't going to want it when he is staring across the cage at me! 7-0... Undefeated... #1P4P on the Island... and the rightful Bantamweight Champion!   Interviewer: In the interest of full disclosure Kamil is also undefeated.   Colby Taylor: Against who? An 18 year old kid and a handful of guys with a combined losing record? One of them is retired already! Has he fought anyone in the top 5 of the division? Top 10 even? I am going to finish him in the first round like I have finished everyone else and I am gonna make it look easy!   Interviewer: When you get to the weigh-in and the press conference and come face to face with Kamil what will you have to say to him?   Colby Taylor: I am gonna bring him a paper belt and congratulate him on his new title! KIFC Paper Champ..... Paper Champ with his make belief paper belt! See you soon Paper Champ!
