Struggles continue in Vegas
Parisian lost to Martin Buday via submission (kimura) at 4:11 of Round 1 at UFC on ESPN 51 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
If Parisian wasn't going to win, it would have been nice to see him remain competitive, but he couldn't even manage that. Josh ate some power shots from Buday right off the hop and didn't handle them well. He eventually conceded a takedown while still clearly hurting before getting caught along the fence and leaving his arm exposed. The loser of back-to-back fights, Parisian is now sporting a 2-4 record in his first half-dozen bouts with the UFC, with the victories coming over Alan Baudot and Roque Martinez. The 34-year-old Michigan native is just about out of time.
