In the video, Parsons is quickly overpowered and tossed out of the ring in his first attempt. Undeterred, he returned for a second bout, where he managed to move the massive sumo wrestler out of the ring amidst roars of cheers.
โTarzanโ will not hesitate to fire shots at anyone. He seemed to have taken offense at the notion that Parsons could best him in such a contest. His bold claim to not only vanquish Parsons but also โsuplex the sumo wrestlerโ is peak Strickland bravado.
