Triple champ incoming? KSW 89 books Adrian Bartosinski vs. Salahdine Parnasse superfight

Three titles will be represented at KSW 89 this December โ€“ and thatโ€™s just in the main event.

In a superfight of epic proportions, welterweight champion Adrian Bartosinski (14-0) will defend his title vs. Salahdine Parnasse (18-1), who holds both the promotionโ€™s lightweight and featherweight titles.

KSW 89 takes place Dec. 16 at PreZero Arena Gliwice in Gliwice, Poland and streams on online pay-per-view in the United States. The card is the promotionโ€™s final on the current 2023 docket.

Bartosinski, 28, is 7-0 in KSW. He has 12 finishes in 14 fights including a 107-second, vacant welterweight title-clinching knockout of Artur Szczepaniak in April.

Parnasse, 25, could become a rare triple champion should he win. Heโ€™s widely considered one of the best pound-for-pound fighters outside the UFC. His most recent 11 fights have taken place under the KSW banner where heโ€™s compiled a 10-1 record with five finishes. His only loss was a 2021 knockout suffered against Daniel Torres, who he defeated in a rematch within the same calendar year.
