Salahdine Parnasse knocks out Dan Hooker in UFC debut - ESPN

Salahdine Parnasse (24-2) knocked out Dan Hooker (24-15) with a body kick and left hooks at the 2:35 mark of the opening round in the main event of UFC Fight Night in Paris, held at the Accor Arena.
The victory marked the 28-year-old Frenchman's long-awaited UFC debut; he had previously won multiple titles in Europe and entered the promotion having won 10 of his last 11 fights.
Parnasse, of Aubervilliers, France, entered as a heavy betting favorite and controlled the fight on the feet, walking Hooker back with leg kicks and fast combinations before hurting him with a liver kick and finishing with left hands against the fence.
After the win, Parnasse declared himself "the best fighter in the world," said he finishes all his fights by knockout, and called for a top-five opponent—specifically naming a "dream fight" against former featherweight champion Max Holloway.
Hooker, the UFC's No. 10-ranked lightweight, did not attempt a single takedown and could not match Parnasse's striking; it was the fifth knockout loss of his career and his third consecutive finish, following defeats to Benoit Saint-Denis and Arman Tsarukyan.
