Top 5 shocking MMA fighter deaths

#2 Jordan Parsons

Parsons was run over by a car which led to his death

Parsons’ death was mourned as an injustice when it was first announced because of the horrible way it happened. In early May 2016, Parsons was crossing the street from his Florida apartment when he was violently struck by a Range Rover driven by a reckless 28-year-old named Dennis Wright as he drove home from a nightclub.

After being hit, the “Pretty Boy” was rushed to the hospital where he suffered a brutal severed lower right leg, a pelvic fracture, several fractured ribs, lung contusions, arterial bleeding, a splenectomy and rectal tear. Parsons died three days after the incident, losing his battle to stay alive.

The disturbing account was a hit-and-run which created a statewide search for the driver who was later found. In the security videos, it is seen that Wright was reportedly clocking in excess of 100mph.

When he was finally caught was said he was cover up evidence of the crash by taking his damaged vehicle to a repair shop. He was later slapped with vehicular homicide, DUI manslaughter, leaving the scene of a crashing involving death and ‘tampering or fabricating physical evidence’ which got him fined $450,000 – rightfully so.
