KSW is one of the most famous and prestigious MMA organisations. It currently has in its ranks the French fighter Salahdine Parnasse, who should soon be fighting for the featherweight belt. If you're passionate about mixed martial arts, you've probably lost yourself on YouTube by watching the highlights of the big fights in this organisation.
