Profile
Overview
Losene Keita's one UFC win lasted 2:54, and his last loss lasted 1:14. Nothing in his UFC run so far has been slow. The Guinea-born "Black Panther" fights at featherweight out of Lamiro Fight Club, with a 17-3 professional record across all promotions and a 1-2 mark in the UFC.
Three fights is a small sample, but the pattern is already clear: he doesn't spend much time in the cage.
UFC Career
Keita debuted with a split decision loss to Nathaniel Wood, a strong opponent, going the full three rounds. Next came Muhammad Naimov, and Keita finished him by KO/TKO at 2:54 of round one. That is his only UFC win.
Then Aaron Pico stopped him by KO/TKO at 1:14 of the first round at UFC 333. He carries a one-fight losing streak into his next bout.
Fighting Style
Losene Keita is a striker first. He stays busy on the feet and is hard to hit, which is the combination that defines his game. Opponents have a tough time getting to him cleanly, and they also have a tough time taking him down.
He is not a grappler. Keita rarely shoots for takedowns and almost never hunts for submissions, so his offense comes from striking.
His lone UFC finish backs that up: a first-round knockout. His two losses, one by knockout and one by decision, show he can be beaten, but his defensive habits are what keep him competitive.
Notable Wins
- Muhammad Naimov — KO/TKO, round 1 (2:54), UFC Fight Night: Hooker vs. Parnasse (2026)
