Ep 307 Jesse Taylor BEFORE the UFC Jesse Taylor dominated The Ultimate Fighter house, crushed everyone in sight, and was one win away from a UFC contract... Then one wild night changed everything. In this raw two-part episode, Jesse "JT Money" Taylor pulls no punches: early Team Quest chaos, underground San Diego stories, TUF glory and heartbreak, worldwide redemption wars, and some insane behind-the-scenes bombs you've never heard.
