An interim lightweight title was on the line at KSW 76 on Saturday when featherweight champion Salahdine Parnasse made the move to claim a second belt.
Parnasse, originally expected to face 155lb champ Marian Ziołkowski, drew Sabastian Rajewski instead after Ziolkowski was forced off the card due to injury. Which meant that, rather than an undisputed title, Parnasse would have to settle for collecting an interim belt, should he prove able to get past Rajewski in Grodzisk Mazowiecki, Poland.
Also featured on Saturday’s KSW 76 card, Antun Racic faced off with Zuriko
Jojua, while Argentina’s Francisco Albano Barrio looked for his fourth consecutive win, and third under the KSW banner, against Maciej Kazieczko.
England’s Tom Breese, meanwhile, looked to maintain his undefeated record since leaving the UFC against fellow octagon vet Pawel Pawlak.
KSW 76 takes place at the Sports and Entertainment Hall in Grodzisk Mazowiecki, Poland on Saturday, November 12, 2022. Full results from the event, which streams via KSWTV.com, can be found below.
