Sa famille s&rsquo;installe ensuite aux \u00c9tats-Unis, et c&rsquo;est dans la r\u00e9gion de Kansas City qu&rsquo;il pose ses gants. Surnomm\u00e9 \u00ab\u00a0Silent Assassin\u00a0\u00bb, il \u00e9volue chez les poids plumes avec un record pro de 14 victoires pour 3 d\u00e9faites.<\/p>\n<h3>Le parcours : de l&rsquo;invaincu au top 15<\/h3>\n<p>Avant de signer \u00e0 l&rsquo;UFC, Onama \u00e9crase tout sur son passage : 8-0 chez les pros, sans la moindre d\u00e9faite. L&rsquo;UFC l&rsquo;appelle et il fait ses d\u00e9buts dans l&rsquo;octogone le 23 octobre 2021 face \u00e0 Mason Jones, un combat qu&rsquo;il perd aux points sur un choix d&rsquo;adversaire relev\u00e9. Pas de quoi le freiner : il encha\u00eene ensuite et se construit petit \u00e0 petit une place dans la hi\u00e9rarchie de la division, jusqu&rsquo;\u00e0 entrer dans le top 15 des plumes.<\/p>\n<h3>Le style : un finisseur, pas un point-fighter<\/h3>\n<p>Onama, c&rsquo;est d&rsquo;abord un puncheur. Sur ses 14 succ\u00e8s, 7 arrivent par KO\/TKO et 4 par soumission \u2014 autrement dit, il termine ses adversaires plus souvent qu&rsquo;il ne va \u00e0 la d\u00e9cision. Form\u00e9 chez Factory X (FactoryX Muay Thai), il s&rsquo;appuie sur une frappe lourde et un volume qui use l&rsquo;adversaire, sans pour autant \u00eatre perdu au sol vu son total de finitions par soumission. Le genre de profil qui rend chaque combat dangereux pour celui d&rsquo;en face.<\/p>\n<h3>Combats notables<\/h3>\n<p>Le 16 novembre 2024, il domine Roberto Romero pour s&rsquo;imposer \u00e0 la d\u00e9cision unanime. Puis vient le combat qui le fait passer un cap : le 26 avril 2025, il bat Giga Chikadze \u00e0 la d\u00e9cision unanime, une victoire de r\u00e9f\u00e9rence contre un frappeur reconnu. La marche d&rsquo;apr\u00e8s est plus rude. Le 1er novembre 2025, propuls\u00e9 en main event de l&rsquo;UFC Vegas 110 (UFC Fight Night : Garcia vs. Onama), il tombe sur Steve Garcia, qui le stoppe par TKO d\u00e8s le premier round (3:34). Une d\u00e9faite nette, mais un statut d\u00e9sormais \u00e9tabli : on ne te met pas en t\u00eate d&rsquo;affiche d&rsquo;un \u00e9v\u00e9nement UFC pour rien.<\/p>\n<h3>Statut actuel<\/h3>\n<p>Au d\u00e9but 2026, David Onama pointe autour de la 14e place du classement UFC des poids plumes. \u00c0 31 ans, avec un style de finisseur et une histoire qui force le respect \u2014 du camp de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s au main event UFC \u2014 il reste un nom \u00e0 suivre de pr\u00e8s dans une des divisions les plus denses de l&rsquo;organisation.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sources-article\"><strong>Sources :<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/David_Onama\">Wikipedia<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ufc.com\/athlete\/david-onama\">UFC.com<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/UFC_Fight_Night:_Garcia_vs._Onama\">Wikipedia (UFC Vegas 110)<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Onama, \u00ab\u00a0Silent Assassin\u00a0\u00bb ougandais et poids plume UFC (record 14-3), du camp de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s de Kyangwali au main event UFC.
