Tomasz Narkun won the OKTAGON 95 main event in Karlovy Vary. On Saturday evening the Pole beat Daniel Škvor at light heavyweight by rear-naked choke at 2:29 of the first round. The bout only became the main event at short notice after Patrik Kincl declined to fight Dominik Humburger, who had missed weight.
According to Top-Fight.cz, Narkun took Škvor down with a single-leg after about a minute and worked from top position. An elbow opened a cut on Škvor's forehead. When the Czech tried to get up, Narkun took his back and locked in the choke – Škvor tapped.
According to Ruik.cz, it was the 22nd win against seven losses for former KSW champion Narkun. Škvor, who had won his previous four fights, suffered the fifth defeat of his professional career.
