Dana White Contender Series Fighter, Touted to be a Champion, Set for UFC Debut.
This superstar is preparing to make his UFC debut this July in LONDON after years of hustle, effort, and struggle.
Dana White (President): The UFC has always given chances to world-class athletes around the globe to nurture and flourish in their respective MMA careers.
If you have the talent and belief, Dana always has something special for you.
To find out new talents and give chances to newcomers, Dana White started ‘THE DANA WHITE CONTENDER SERIES’. The inaugural season was telecasted in 2017, which included a total of eight weekly shows.
Since then, in each season, contracts have been signed by the fighters after winning the final fight in each division. The most recent season is the sixth season of The Dana White Contender Series.
However, there has been a buzz around for a few months since a fighter is getting all set to make his much anticipated octagon debut, and the name of the debutant is:
*Jonny ‘The Sluggernaut' Parsons*
Jonny has competed in the 5th edition of the Dana White Contender Series’. This talented mixed martial artist is 31 years old and has a professional record of 8 wins and 3 losses to his name.
Jonny Parsons is an all-American, and he fights in the welterweight division. He fought in the finals in October 2021 against Solomon Renfro in the Dana White Contender Series and registered an impressive split decision win.
He has 15+ years of experience and has mastered Muay Thai.
Initially, Parson was about to make his UFC debut in February 2022 against Michael Gillmore, but it ended up in vain as the fight didn’t materialize.
*Now in July 2023, he is all set to go up against The Veteran Danny Roberts.*
- Danny Roberts (35) has been fighting professionally since 2010 and holds a professional record of 18 wins and 7 losses to his name.
- He is a seasoned veteran and he is known by his ring name ‘HOT CHOCOLATE’.
- However the recent years have not been so nice to Danny Roberts.
*LAST 5 FIGHTS OF BOTH THE FIGHTERS…..
Danny Roberts has won just 1 fight out of his last 5 fights; out of the remaining four, two got cancelled while he lost the remaining two.
On the other hand, Johnny is on a 5-straight win streak, which makes him a very dangerous opponent for Danny.
- Jonny will enter the octagon as the ‘favourite' while Danny will be the ‘Underdog’.
It will be very interesting to see if ‘The Sluggernaut' can register a win on his debut or if the ‘Hot Chocolate' will burn the dreams of Jonny Parsons.
It is a dream opportunity for Jonny Parsons since he has always touted himself as a champion, and a win over Danny can act as a boost in achieving his goal.
‘To be the best you got to beat the best.’
We will see what will happen when these two guns collide this July.
Can Parsons begin his career with a bang or will it be Danny’s day ? We’ll come to know soon.
With this I end here.
What do you think will happen this July?
