Quoteworthy:

"No I haven’t thought about going up or down [in weight classes], what I have thought about was actually getting in shape for a fight. I’m not partying with the girls so much and I’m starting to really train for the fights."

Talented welterweight contender Karo Parisyan -- who UFC President recently referred to as a gatekeeper for the 170-pound division -- talks about the possibility of moving down to compete in the 155-pound lightweight division in a recent interview (he's not) ... and a lot more (Nate Diaz, how to maim people in street fights, etc.). "The Heat" will look to rebound from a technical knockout loss to Thiago Alves when he takes on Yoshiyuki Yoshida at UFC 88: "Breakthrough" on September 6.
