Mick Parkin

uh and i just mentioned those two fights but is there any other fights you want to mention here too there's a couple sweet ones on here

The Johnny Walker, obviously versus Mick Parkin.

He landed.

I don't know if you saw the finish, but he tried to hit him with the flying.

I know it was entertaining, but like largely we're getting like crazy knockouts because we have wild mismatches, right? I think this fight card is better match made.

You know what I mean? Like I think they did a better job putting together real fights, that our coin flips are close to it versus fights we know somebody's gonna get murked in the first 30 seconds, you know? Like one of the closest lines last week was Johnny Walker versus Mick Parkin.

And like, he just slept them in a minute, you know? So like, I think this fight will, or this fight card will produce some closer matchups that have, you know, more fun for us to talk about in the grand scheme of things.

for sure yeah it was definitely harder for me to make my make my place that's technically the way it goes with fight nights and with with uh pay-per-view quote-unquote um pay-per-views seem to they have more known quantities and qualities and quantities uh so it's easier to uh to break down fights and and pick winners this card a little bit more difficult for me uh we have one dog come through last week as well i believe uh gumby hit it though so good job um so yeah the the chalk 2026 continues so last week was an extreme version of it and yeah i agree with everything what you said everything that you said it was we didn't learn anything last week right but we had fun but it was it was empty calories

Once again, you had another KO in the first round.

Johnny Walker, I'll give this one, got a KO in the first round against Mick Parkin.

Sorry, got the KO there.

And then Yeah, I won't keep going down, but it was just literally a crazy, crazy card for KOs.

yeah yes yep yep and lucas armand i mean when the guy's nickname is do or die it's like okay against uh a massive former nfl player who's also undefeated you know and your your big fights are in two-piece promotions war at the wex um you know that this is we know what we're expecting here

Um, I, I think, I mean, we didn't preview it obviously, cause we didn't do the show, but like Johnny Walker, a heavyweight, like I would have picked him against Mick Parkin just cause Mick Parkin's okay.

But Johnny Walker has like, you know, has real aggressive

skills.

So Mick Parkin, he rushed at Johnny Walker.

He got into a clinch.

walker jump need him out of the clinch and then like he's tall enough that after he landed successfully from the flying knee from the clinch he managed to land another knee to the head from the clinch and parkin just flopped on his head and was like that's enough of that that's why i would have

got a glass chin.

I think like a Marcin Tibera would be a great fighter for him to get on his resume.

Johnny Walker versus Mick Parkin.

Dude, this is the second best finish on the card.

That is literally as good as it gets for a debut at a different weight class.

Not to mention Mick Parkin has never been knocked out before.

Mick Parkin has a really good chin getting flatlined.

And again, not TKO's here.

We're talking about actually he's like his eyes are white and he's like shaking like that kind of a knockout.

[laughs]

Another exciting heavyweight, Ian, and I, I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say this was the best knockout of all the amazing knockouts on UFC 332, was Ireland's own Johnny Walker, who landed a beautiful knee in the clinch to, uh, to knock out Mick Parkin, who's, you know, he'd never been knocked out.

A very, very good fighter, Mick Parkin.

And I'll be honest, I was watching this and I was saying, "Jeez, Johnny's fighting very well from the outside, throwing a l- a couple of lovely jabs, throwing a lovely leg kick." I was just all going well, and then the fight went into a clinch and I'm saying, "Jesus, Johnny, what are you doing?" He had an opportunity to get out.

Goes back into the clinch.

I'm, "Now what are you doing? What are you doing?" And first of all, he throws a big flying knee.

That doesn't land, but it's this little stepping knee through the middle with his left knee, puts Mick Parkin to sleep.

What a knockout, Ian.
