On Karo’s Issues: “Karo Parisyan has a lot of personal problems – mental, emotional, physical. He’s got all kinds of problems. I had no idea he’d pull out,” White said. “Never in a million years I thought he’d do it again.”
The UFC Tried To Help: “I’ve tried to help him several times,” White said. “When I say ‘tried to help him,’ I went above and beyond the call of duty on that one, man. I won’t go public with [the details], but I’ve done a lot for that kid, and that kid stuck it to me. He stuck it to me hard.”
