Karo Parisyan Comments On His Feud With Nate Diaz
Posted by Dustin James on 07.05.2008
Looks like it's not over.......
During a recent interview with TAGG Radio, Karo Parisyan filled us in on his feelings towards Nate Diaz. The two got into an altercation during an episode of The Ultimate Fighter season 5 when Karo came to visit the fighters on the show:
On what started the altercation:
"The deal is, it started out kind of as a joke. I kind of let him know, 'You know what? You're saying shut up in front of everybody.' ... I came up and I starting telling him, 'Listen, dude. We're on national fucking TV. Don't be saying shit like that.
[Diaz] thinks he can get rowdy with me and walk away. He walked away from me, next to my cousin Manny (Gamburyan), and he started acting all 'What's up homies?' And I'm like, 'Dude, are you fucking kidding me? Dude I wouldn't even have to punch you. I'll slap you."
On his "Do you know who I am" speech on the show:
"When I said, 'Do you know who I am,' everybody was like, 'Oh, he's so cocky. I don't mean, ‘Do you know who I am?' Of course you know who I am. I'm Karo, and I fight in the UFC. Big deal.
What I said to him was, 'Hey mother fucker. Do you know who I am on the street? As far as me not being an athlete, do you know what I'm capable of doing on the fucking street? Do you know me that way? No, you don't know me. So if you don't know me, fuck with me."
On what their relationship has been like after the show, and what the future holds:
"I was very close to taking his fucking head off. But then again, I had 10 to 15 athletes there holding me back. It is what it is. Recently I almost fought at another competition with them, at fights in the UFC, where guys held me back again.
Eventually, one day, something is going to happen because I can't handle that kid anymore."

What's Diaz going to do? Flinch him into submission? Nate was looking scared as hell as soon as Karo got close.
Also you are fat.

Karo can't get publicity by winning fights nowadays, so why not seek it by talking up a feud with a young, up and coming fighter? I think Nate could beat 'im. After taking tremendous punishment in the Diaz tradition that is. It would be a good fight anyways.

There's NO ONE I want to see BEAT more than those diaz BITCHES. I hope if Karo does fight any of them, he snaps something - anything.

Karo may be a bit of a pud sometimes and I hate when athletes try to "thug out" but he is still a better rep for the sport than Nate so I hope he does get a piece of him and win a patented Karo decision

I'm curious, how is Karo a better rep for the sport? Is it by picking fights with smaller, younger, mor inexperienced fighters? Is it incessantly whining about his own crushing defeats? Is it when he picks fights in the locker room and then backs down? If not, it must be when he brags about his street cred! The guy's a low life. Nate Diaz may be a mumbling nimrod but at least he seems to keep his mouth shut most of the time.

Karo should not have been in the dressing room in the first place, he just wanted TV time. Just like this stupid feud, he just wants a big EliteXC payday!

Mobad, that would be, less experienced fighters. Not, mor inexperiensid fiters, or whatever you were trying to say. Is it possible for them just to choke each other dead, simultaneously? MMA doesn't need either one of those shit starters. With it's move to mainstream America, idiots like that need to take up , I don't know, maybe Traffic dodging or something like that. That will help out Karo's street cred also!!!

I wouldn't even call this a feud, Diaz didn't like him being all up on him like he was. Being put in a house with nothing but hard legs is kind of frustrating and then having Karo leaning all over him invading his space, so I don't blame him for speaking out. He just wanted some breathing room.

I with NOJO, A double choke out sounds cool.

Let's hear it for Karo - for continuing a nothing feud long after it should have already dissolved and threatening a smaller fighter in the street. They're different weight classes - I can't see Nate putting on the extra weight to move up to WW, and I sure as hell can't picture Karo losing 15lbs... so don't expect them to ever fight.
Of course, I could easily picture Karo blindsiding him... sucker-punching Nate from behind while he's on line at McD's ordering just so he could show Nate exactly "who he is." Then he'd go on interviews saying how he destroyed the last guy who stood up to him and demand a title shot since he had defeated the Ultimate Fighter.
