UFC signs OKTAGON champion Losene Keita
The UFC has added a big name, talent, and personality to its featherweight division. "Make featherweight great again," is what Losene Keita says he wants to do. He'll have the chance to do that soon, as he announced Friday he's signed with the UFC. Keita (16-1) is widely regarded as one of the best featherweights outside the UFC. He held OKTAGON titles at both featherweight and lightweight. He's known for his fighting abilities and highlight-reel knockouts but also his mic skills and electric walkouts. Keita's only career loss was due to injury, and he's notched 10 knockout victories in 16 fights. "I already slapped everybody in Europe," Keita told MMA Junkie in July. "Every time I'm sitting in front of the TV, I'm watching a featherweight, (and) it's not what it used to be before. It used to be a fun weight class. We need a big star. We need someone who can sleep people. We need some fun fighters. Imagine being in front of the TV, watching these kind of fights. I'm like, 'How are they in the UFC? How?' For me, my job is now to make featherweight great again in the UFC. I think it's time to go to the UFC. I'm the guy the UFC really needs." It has yet to be announced when Keita will make his promotional debut, but he told MMA Junkie he hoped for Sept. 6 at the UFC Fight Night event in Paris.
