Parkin’s UFC career hasn’t been particularly exciting to date, but it’s hard to ignore a heavyweight who has strung together three straight wins while being on the right side of 30. More of an athlete than he appears, the Englishman got by on the regional scene by swamping his opponents with his size and his pace, and that has mostly held true since he made it to the UFC in 2023. The only difference? While Parkin was typically able to find a finish against regional competition, in the UFC, his fights have mostly turned into tedious kickboxing matches where opponents haven’t been able to shake him off of his game. Things should shake out into something interesting for Parkin at some point, but for now, he chugs along against Brzeski, who’s coming off his long-awaited first UFC win. “The Bull” has been a fighter who has looked solid on paper but had trouble turning his skills into actual success. He’s a tall striker with some snap that can pick up steam as his fights go on, but his lack of defense and some questionable durability held him back until a decision win over Valter Walker in April. This figures to settle into a high-paced if somewhat tepid striking match where both men can get some work done, and while it could go either way, that’s the type of fight Parkin has been winning lately. The pick is Parkin via decision.
