Kyle Prepolec

Overview

Five UFC fights, five losses, and only one of them ended inside the first round.

Kyle Prepolec is a Windsor, Ontario lightweight who goes by "Killshot." He holds an 18-11-0 professional record across all promotions, but his UFC record is 0-5. He is not a champion, and the UFC run has yet to produce a win.

A losing streak this long deserves a look at the details. It tells a more specific story than the record alone.

UFC Career

Prepolec debuted in May 2019 against Nordine Taleb and lost a unanimous decision, going the full three rounds. Four months later he dropped another unanimous decision to Austin Hubbard, again over three rounds.

Then came a gap of more than five years in the UFC record. He returned at UFC 315 in May 2025 against Benoit Saint Denis and was submitted in the second round at 2:35. In October 2025 he faced Drew Dober and was stopped by KO/TKO at 1:16 of the third. His most recent fight, in August 2026, ended in a first-round KO/TKO loss to Mateusz Rebecki at 4:41.

The first two losses went the distance. The last three were finishes. That is the wrong direction for a fighter trying to turn the corner.

Five straight losses is the streak he carries into his next fight.

Fighting Style

Prepolec is a southpaw who throws at a normal pace but takes a lot back. He lands about as often as the average UFC fighter, yet he absorbs more than most and has a hard time hitting his target. He is also easier to hit than most.

His grappling doesn't offer a way out of those exchanges. He rarely shoots for takedowns, seldom hunts for submissions, and gets taken down more than most.

That shows up in his UFC losses. Two came by KO or TKO, one by submission, and two went to the judges' scorecards. He has no wins in the promotion.
