Parke steals show at UFC Dublin weigh-ins, throws handbag at Madadi

‘Stormin’ Norman Parke stole the show during the UFC Dublin weigh-ins with his decision to throw a handbag at Reza Madadi.

It is rare occurrence when ‘Stormin' Norman Parke is the most talked about fighter ahead of a UFC show, but that is exactly the case following his antics at the UFC Dublin weigh-ins on Friday.

Parke, who is scheduled to face the recently resigned Iranian-Swedish fighter Reza Madadi on Saturday, arrived at the weigh-ins armed with a pink handbag that he threw at Madadi's feet before their rowdy staredown.

The handbag is a reference to Madadi's 14-month stint in jail for aggravated burglary.
