PHOENIX – “Don’t ever doubt me again. Don’t you ever bully somebody. Don’t you ever talk about somebody and think you’re better than them.”
That’s what massive underdog Ben Parrish barked into the camera moments after his shocking knockout of top Bellator prospect Christian Edwards at Bellator 266 in September.
The words were passionate, but the origin wasn’t known to MMA fans, who largely knew nothing about Parrish at all. From the in-cage interview to his post-fight news conference, “Big Tuna” was fired up.
