PARISYAN SHUTS OUT FICKETT

The Sweet Science
Dec 14 2006

Welterweight Karo Parisyan dominated Drew Fickett by scores of 30-27
all across the board. Fickett found success in the first with some
nice kicks. Most of the first round took place on their feet as
Parisyan scored with some nice rights that reddened Fickett’s face.

In the second, Parisyan slammed Fickett to the mat. Fickett then landed
an elbow from his back which created an ugly cut under Parisyan’s
right eye. Parisyan answered with his own elbows that created a
vertical cut on Fickett’s forehead. The blood flowed after each cut.

In the third round, Parisyan landed more shots to the face of
Fickett. Fickett tried to take his opponent down but Parisyan wasn’t
having any of it. The Armenian-American defended well and earned the
decision. Parisyan is now 24-3. Fickett drops one and is now 30-5.
