“Boxing yog ib tug zoo dua haum rau kuv vim hais tias kuv yeej ib txwm hlub lub standup ib feem ntawm MMA,” sau Parker. “Thaum twg kuv twb muaj cov txiv hmab txiv ntoo Brandon (9-1) sib ntaus sib tua thiab pib xav txog kev cai uas ib leeg, Kuv paub kuv tau pom kuv lub yeej muaj tseeb hauj lwm dab tsi.
