Despite earning a spot in the finale of "The Ultimate Fighter 7" earlier this year, Jesse Taylor was kicked out of the competition and the UFC after a drunken Las Vegas rampage.
Taylor got a second shot with the organization, but he was again kicked out of the UFC after a loss to C.B. Dollaway and some questionable comments he made about Quinton Jackson and the UFC's management team back in July.
On Thursday, though, Taylor (7-3) finally had something go right: he upset veteran fighter Drew Fickett (35-7) with a first-round TKO at Total Combat 32.
