UFC Paris: Losene Keita pulls off celebration of the year after absurd KO of Muhammad Naimov
The man they call “Black Panther” vaulted over the cage wall, stole a seat in the crowd and gave himself a hearty round of applause as chaos unfolded around him inside Paris' Accor Arena.
In a spectacular display of skill and showmanship, Losene Keita delivered a jaw-dropping one-punch knockout of Muhammad Naimov at UFC Paris on Saturday. The Belgian fighter, nicknamed "Black Panther," landed a devastating right hook in the opening round, rendering Naimov unconscious at the 2:54 mark. Undeterred by the chaos ensuing around him, Keita swiftly vaulted over the cage wall and gracefully entered the crowd, taking a seat and giving himself a composed applause as Naimov's supporters looked on in disbelief.
The memorable finish marked Keita's victory in his UFC debut, following a split decision loss to Nathaniel Wood in his previous bout. Keita, a former champion at Oktagon, vowed to make his UFC debut a memorable one, while also warning his rival, Lerone Murphy, who was present in the crowd, that he would not be denied a victory.
