Elliot Worsell, UFC - If the scent of overwhelming hyperbole forces you to part open your eyelids and request lemon juice be poured into your eyeball, it's probably best to look away now, while you still have the capacity to see. Similarly, if your name happens to be Jon Jones and you kick butt for a living, steer clear of reading the following, as it will only further inflate your ego, distract from training obligations, paper over bad habits and, perhaps lead you to pose topless before a full-size bedroom mirror and proclaim, "Yes, I most certainly am The Man, aren't I?".

My life is not a science experiment. Yours isn't either. I have a real family, a real job... real priorities. And if you're honest, I bet you do too.

The future is bright for mixed martial arts with six champions from the major MMA organizations being just 24 years old or younger.

However, in our latest MMAjunkie.com/"Inside MMA" weekly poll, we wanted to know which of those champions has the promising future in the sport.

Three organizations and two genders were represented in the pool of candidates, but one title-holder proved the overwhelming favorite and took the lion's share of the votes.

Paul Taylor's UFC future will be determined by the results of a full
medical checkup and CT scan he plans to undergo in the next 10 days.

"[The UFC] wants it as a precaution," Paul Hennessy, Taylor's manager, told MMAjunkie.com.

The lightweight fighter suffered what officials called a "classic
migraine" the night prior to a scheduled fight with John Gunderson at
UFC 112 this past Saturday and was removed from the card shortly before
the event began.

Frank Mir's future as a broadcaster for the promotion's sister company,
World Extreme Cagefighting, remains up in the air, but today the former
UFC heavyweight champion said he hopes to return to the commentary role
he's held since the company first hit the Versus airwaves in June 2007.

"It's something that hopefully I'll be able to do in the future," Mir
told MMAjunkie.com. "Right now, I'm concentrating
more on my fighting career."

Mir is currently preparing for a UFC 111 interim title fight with Shane Carwin on March 27.

While a press conference was previously expected to be held by the UFC this week to clear up the dark cloud that has hovered over the future of the promotion’s current heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar, it now appears as though the news will surface in a somewhat less formal setting.

Lesnar will appear on tomorrow evening’s ESPN Sportscenter broadcast which will kick off at 11 am ET according to a recent report from MMAJunkie.com who were recently able to confirm the news through UFC officials.

Lesnar has been missing from action since his UFC 100 mugging of Frank Mir in July of 2009.

Brockamania has been running wild throughout the mixed martial arts community in the days since the massive champion’s absence, with one of the more absurd published reports stating that the normally 300+ pound former NCAA champion wrestler has somehow managed to dwindle down to the 220 pound mark.

Common sense and numerous reports from those close to Lesnar would lead one to conclude that the former WWE superstar will be making a return to the Octagon sometime in the future, and hopefully with tomorrow’s announcement some of the lingering questions hanging over the oversized head of Lesnar will finally be laid to rest.

As it stands currently, Shane Carwin and Frank Mir are set to square off at UFC 111 to decide the promotion’s interim heavyweight tile in Brock’s absence.
