Built from Koji Kitao’s own numbers — record, form, fighting style and standout rate. Not reported prose. All-rounder
6' 7" southpaw all-rounder campaigning at Heavyweight.
The facts, plainly — vitals and record from public UFC statistics; nickname, nationality and camp from the public fighter register. A field we can't source stays “pending”; it never shows a fake value. Where a fighter was born and where they fight out of come from their Wikipedia entry; where we hold neither, the hometown shown is Sherdog’s. The UFC record is counted from the official results themselves, and is dated by the first and last bout it counts.

Six 0–100 scores, each a percentile rank against the Heavyweight field — not against the whole roster. Tap any i for what a score measures.
Where the strikes go — and where they land on them. Career UFC totals, straight off the tape.
Significant strikes only, as recorded by UFCStats, across the fighter's whole UFC career. Shares are raw counts — nothing here is modelled or smoothed. Accuracy is landed ÷ attempted and comes from the per-round tape, which covers slightly fewer fights than the totals do. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.
No takedown data
UFCStats records no takedown or submission activity for this fighter in either direction — usually a fighter with no UFC bout on the tape. A row of zeroes would read as a measured weakness; this is an absence, and we show it as one.
Pro record: 1-2. In the UFC: 0-1. Koji Kitao’s last 1 UFC bout, most recent first — the result in the cage, not our pick.
Straight off the official UFC fight record. Card names are left off on purpose: the only event labels in our data are derived, and we’d rather print nothing than print one that’s wrong.
| Date | Opponent | Method | Rd | Event | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1996-05-17 | L | Mark Hall | TKO (doctor) | R1 | UFC 9: Motor City Madness |
Every date links to that bout’s own page. Card names come from the official event record; where the UFC ran two cards on one date, or that record has no row for it, the Event column is left empty rather than filled with a guess.
