Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between jayceon taylor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Colby Bates (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). taylor kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is how we do. jayceon taylor looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
