KSW 58 results: Daniel Torres claims featherweight title with first-round upset of Salahdine Parnasse

Daniel Torres’ scored a rather awkward knockout of Salahdine Parnasse to claim featherweight gold in the KSW 58 main event.

[autotag]Daniel Torres[/autotag] became the new KSW featherweight champion on Saturday, when he stopped [autotag]Salahdine Parnasse[/autotag] less than two minutes into the first round.

Torres’ (12-4) awkward right hook caught Parnasse (14-1-1) on the top of the head and put him down to spell an end to the contest, forcing a change of ownership with the 145-pound belt at the 1:49 mark of Round 1 in the KSW 58 main event.

KSW 58 took place at an undisclosed venue in Lodz, Poland and streamed via online pay-per-view.

After exchanging some blows early in the fight, Parnasse got slightly too aggressive coming in on Torres with a combination, and it cost him.

Torres looked to counter with a right hook, and as Parnasse ducked, the lower part of Torres’ bicep caught him on the side of the head and dropped Parnasse face-first to the canvas.

Parnasse, despite not being out cold, was unquestionably hurt by the glancing blow, and it was enough for the referee to jump in and stop the fight.

With that, Torres, who closed as a high as a +500 betting underdog, was deemed the new KSW featherweight champ, while Parnasse was stunned after taking his first career loss.
