    So I was gonna make a "where the hell is ____?" thread about Paul Taylor, but I decided to Wiki him, and it says he retired in 2013. I am a big fan, and somehow missed this news. Any other fans here? Gifs + pics Relentless!

    I loved his fight with Chris Lytle and I remember before he called it a career the UFC kept trying to put Paul against Anthony Njokuani. Sadly we never were able to see it.

    He was constantly getting injured so I'm guessing that's why he retired

    It's unfortunate. I was a huge fan of the guy, was real exciting fighter. Love him, I hope he does well financially now without fighting

    He also had constant problems with headaches. He had to cancel one fight (maybe it was against Stout?) because of a very strong migraine attack he had

    It was a curse. They tried to make the fight 3 times, every time there was a problem :/ It would've been awesome fight.
