UFC Fight Night 13 Preview: Karo "The Heat" Parisyan

My mother was Armenian and I have her maiden name tattooed across the
entire top of my back (Jierjian was her name for the record). I
support any and all Armenian fighters and when Karo tangles with the
ultra-talented Thiago Alves, I'll be rooting for him more than ever.
This highlight reel shows the enormous talent of the Armenian
welterweight with particular attention paid to his victory over
current UFC welterweight champ Matt "The Terror" Serra. Serra proved
to be a worthy adversary, but Karo is extremely tough and proved it
by weathering a storm St. Pierre could not.
Karo Parisyan is a little gun shy in the wake of losing a title shot,
but let us not forget what he can offer when the opportunity presents
itself. Hopefully April 2nd is one of those days.
