Parsing

Hi.

"I don’t care who it is I fight next." [From The Guardian.]

Is my parsing correct?

I - a subject;

don't care - a verb;

who it is I fight next - an object >>>> it - a subject; is - a verb; who I fight next - complement; >>>> I - a subject; fight - a verb; who - an object; next - an adverbial.

Thank you.

I suggest that 'who it is [that] I fight next' is a complement, not an object.
