Thiago Alves is fighting John Howard at UFC 124 and we're all going to like it

Thiago Alves is fighting John Howard at UFC 124 and we're all going to like it

A couple of days ago on MMAJunkie radio, Mike Pierce called out Thiago Alves and had some pretty decent smack talk regarding Alves on Facebook. On Twitter, Pierce said 'This place is as dead as Thiago Alves' and 'Thiago Alves to be featured on Biggest Loser on Dec 23rd'. He even asked Dana to gi...

Joe Warren vs. Joe Soto comes on TONIGHT!

Joe Warren vs. Joe Soto comes on TONIGHT!

It's the only MMA any of us will be seeing this week, so if you vehemently hate the sport of mixed martial arts, despise equally matched title fights and refuse to see spectacular finishes, don't watch Bellator 27 tonight on Fox Sports West. Your friends will make fun of you behind your back, but ...

KJ Noons thinks Nick Diaz is a trash-talking, pot-smoking chump

KJ Noons thinks Nick Diaz is a trash-talking, pot-smoking chump

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the Nick Diaz and KJ Noons rivalry, the beef started back in Elite XC where a controversial doctor stoppage handed Diaz his only loss in the past 3 years. Winning a fight due to a doctor stoppage in the first round is a lot like winning a competitive ea...

EA Sports MMA will not be released in Denmark due to a strange Scandinavian law

When the Kool-Aid man breaks through a wall in a commercial, all the kids start cheering. Imagine a seven-foot pitcher full of Kool-Aid breaking through your house screaming 'Oh yeah!', it's a horrifying thought. He might spill over and get some of himself on the carpet. The worst thing is, you ca...

If you missed the UFC Fan Expo, Bloodstain Lane has you covered

In all fairness, the entire MiddleEasy crew was supposed to go to the UFC Fan Expo in a taco truck and serve up carne asada goodness for fans of the site. Sadly the idea didn’t work out after we learned that tacos are not an approved cuisine at the John B. Hynes Center. Not sure what Boston ha...

Karo Parisyan is BACK in the UFC!

Karo Parisyan is BACK in the UFC!

I could be looking too far into it, but when Dana says that you '[Expletive] the UFC' by pulling out of the fight the day before weigh-ins, it looks like that may denote a lifetime ban. In fact, it did constitute a lifetime ban in the promotion, but in ZUFFA years, a lifetime is only ten months....

Overeem accepts Fedor's challenge, plans to fight him after K-1

The greatest thing about Alistair Overeem accepting Fedor's challenge to fight him after he's done with the K-1 Grand Prix is that he actually watched a Bloodstain Lane video on a message board and responded. Next step for Alistair Overeem is to accept my friend request on Xbox Live. The guy plays...

Mariusz Pudzianowski is leaner, meaner, and doesn't think he hits like a girl

I used to think the meaning of life was somewhere inside the cut Jose Benevidez left on Miguel Torres’ forehead, but it turns out those were just Miguel’s deepest thoughts about the perfect plate of carnitas after a warm bath. If the meaning of life was actually hidden in plain site, it would...

Dan Henderson and Gegard Mousasi may get the next Strikeforce title shots, despite coming off losses

Dan Henderson and Gegard Mousasi may get the next Strikeforce title shots, despite coming off losses

A lot of people criticized Strikeforce’s decision to give Brett Rogers a title shot immediately following his loss to Fedor Emelianenko last year. This past spring, Ubereem agreed with those critics as he made short work of Rogers and ended his first title defense in just shy of four minutes. ...

Carlos Newton demonstrates a one-inch punch and throws a Wu-Tang reference in for good measure

Carlos Newton demonstrates a one-inch punch and throws a Wu-Tang reference in for good measure

Carlos Newton should be undefeated based on how cool he looks. The same goes with Sokoudjou or any other guy that competes in MMA with a full set of dredlocks. We all wanted them, but our parents firmly held onto the belief that long hair was a gateway drug that led to smoking marijuana, wearing t...

Dana White says Karo Parisyan 'F***ed the UFC', now on a lifetime ban PDF Print E-mail
Written by Zeus   
Thursday, 19 November 2009 14:32

Karo, I think Dana White's pissed off with you. I mean I could be looking too far into it but Dana White said that you sort of 'F*** the UFC' be pulling out of the fight the day before weigh-ins. He also said that you're never fighting in the UFC again but that sounds like something you should talk to him about. Just giving you the heads up man, before it ends up on some MMA site where it will be read by thousands of people across the world. Damn.

 

 

Here is what Karo told MMAWeekly

“There’s a lot of problems going on. They won’t re-license me unless I (expletive) pay them. I had to pay the $32,000 fine in order to fight. I never paid because I never had the money. I don’t know if I’ll be able to come back...Everything is over bro. I’m just going to go home. Everything is fucked up. I’ve got to think about what I’m going to do for my career. I’ve got to think about what I want to do as far as fighting goes.”

And here's the update from the Nevada State Athletic Commission:

...Parisyan had already been fully licensed last January and was cleared to fight this Saturday. Kizer said Parisyan had not been required to take a pre-fight drug test for the painkillers he had been flagged for in January, as they would be tested the night of the bout.

Parisyan had contacted Kizer a few weeks ago to discuss a “nagging, lingering injury,” Kizer said, and asked what proper medications he could take prior to the bout. Kizer said he instructed Parisyan that Tylenol and icing was the safest method, but encouraged the fighter to have his physician send in a letter stating his injuries and what medications he was taking for it, so the NSAC doctor could work with him.

Kizer spoke again with Parisyan within the last week to discuss a payment plan for the $32,000 fine the fighter had previously accrued. Kizer said that NSAC Chairman Pat Lundvall had agreed to disperse payment for the fine out of the fighter's show and win purse for this weekend.

“We knew (Parisyan) was having some financial difficulties and wanted to try and help him,” Kizer told Sherdog.com. It was agreed that $16,000 would be deducted from each purse and in the case of a loss, Parisyan would make further arrangements to settle up the remaining balance. Kizer said Parisyan seemed pleased with the arrangement.

Zeus if you're going to post Karo Parisyan quotes, do it properly okay?

He's the REAL quote:

"Bro, there’s a lot of problems bro, going on bro . Bro, they won’t re-license me bro, unless I (expletive) pay them bro. Bro, I had to pay the $32,000 fine bro, in order to fight bro. Bro, I never paid bro, because I never had the money bro. Bro, I don’t know bro, if I’ll be able to come back bro...Everything is over bro, bro.

On a more serious note, it's about time he left. He should be called Karo "Yushin" Parisyan, because he's basically a WW Okami.

The guy's been fighting since UFC 44, has yet to get a fucking title shot, and failed everytime he was put against top-level competition, with the exception of Serra, who he barely managed a win over.

He goes to boring, snooze-fest, decisions (9 of 11 wins by Dec.) every fight and he's constantly over-hyped regarding his supposed "Best Judo Implementation Ever Bro", which basically amounts to hip tossing and shoulder throwing once in a while. I'm impressed, not.
Who on earth nicknamed this guy, "The Heat"?

I mean I don't see the guy going anywhere anymore, he just doesn't train hard enough and doesn't take his opponents seriously enough.
And to top it all off, he tested positive for Oxycontin.
