Having packed a punch in his AWP for over fifteen years on Counter-Strike, winning over the hearts of many as esports’ own hunk, Jarosław "pashaBiceps" Jarząbkowski has now successfully smashed his other hobby out of the octagon, having won his first-ever professional MMA fight with a second-round knockout.

The retired Polish CS:GO star was most famous for his long stints on Virtus.pro, where he won the ESL Major Series One, Katowice 2014, and was named the 3rd best player in the world in the same year. Pasza was also one of the headline-grabbing Golden Five group, who was one of Counter-Strike’s first dynasty teams back in 2006-08. 

PaszaBiceps Wins MMA Debut

However, the CS:GO superstar also had a habit of dropping his controllers for dumbbells and rebranded himself to incorporate his bulky body type, which he has now taken to a new extreme.

Diving fist-first into Mixed Martial Arts, the ex-CS:GO professional made his professional debut and won with a stellar knockout in the second round. 

Sporting a fake CS:GO tattoo on his torso, in commemoration of his esports past, Pasza knocked down his opponent with a first-round right-hook, before combining a defensive uppercut with a driving jab to seat his opponent again at the start of the second round, to which the referee intervened and awarded Pasza the win.

CS:GO Community Applauds PaszaBiceps’ MMA Victory

After seeing the Major Winning CS:GO star swing in the ring with a resounding win, his devoted fan base and respected former teammates took to social media to congratulate him.

Fellow Team Liquid streamer Gabriel "FalleN" Toledo headed to Twitter to say, "ALL THE WAY FROM CS. RESPECT PAPITO."

Counter-Strike’s official Twitter page also congratulated the MMA fighter, showcasing pictures of his Major Win with Virtus.pro and an honorary trophy bearing for IEM Katowice 2019, alongside his pre-match fighting pose.

The landmark win did leave his opponent with a broken eye socket and a retina issue, adding to the severity of the sport Pasza has plunged into, although it appears that his AWP isn’t his deadliest weapon of choice.
