SRN REWIND PREVIEW: KARO PARISYAN
By Jack Encarnacao
Jun 3, 2012
Karo Parisyan doesn’t want you to feel sorry for him, but he does want
you to know what he’s been through.
His backstage battles with panic attacks before some of his biggest
UFC bouts, the nature of his judo and why it still captures fan
imagination and how his Armenian roots influence his outlook on
fighting.
>From his first bout at age 14 in Tijuana to his June 16 title fight
with John Gunderson in Missouri, Parisyan’s career and psyche has been
an open book. Since losing a UFC title shot to injury in 2005, “The
Heat” has fought most of his battles outside of the cage.
Sunday at 9 p.m. ET on the Sherdog Radio Network “Rewind,” Parisyan
joins Jack Encarnacao for an in-depth Sitdown interview that lays bare
his intensity, his mania, and his hopes.
