Mixed martial arts career
Well known for his Muay Thai and Tae Kwon Do elbow strikes, David Loiseau has had an impressive mixed martial arts career.
Loiseau was successful in his first UFC fight defeating Mark Weir by KO. He also achieved a three fight TKO win streak over Gideon Ray, Charles McCarthy, and Evan Tanner. At UFC 58, Loiseau endured a gruelling five-round championship bout with UFC Middleweight Champion Rich "Ace" Franklin. Throughout the entire fight, Rich "Ace" Franklin, the fighter with a strength advantage, won all five rounds, although Loiseau still managed to score a knockdown with a punch in the third round.
On September 23, 2006 David Loiseau fought against Mike Swick at UFC 63. As the first round began Loiseau appeared very tentative and was not the aggressor of the fight. Swick landed unanswered punches on Loiseau and the first round was very one sided. Despite the advice of his corner, Loiseau was still tense but did launch more of an attack. Near the middle of the round Loiseau landed several solid leg kicks on Swick; however, Swick once again pressed the attack winning the stand up battle again and taking Loiseau to the ground. In the third and final round, Loiseau had loosened up a bit and was fighting more reminiscent of his usual style. Loiseau pressed the action and took Swick to the ground where he began to drop his lethal elbow strikes to Swick's head. Swick worked frantically to get out from under Loiseau and up to his feet again. Loiseau once again pressed the attack and overpowered Swick, forcing him into the fence. Loiseau once again unleashed some standing elbow strikes putting Swick in trouble; Swick then shot for the takedown and finished the fight in David Loiseau's full guard. Loiseau's actions in the third round were not enough to win him the fight as he lost to Mike Swick by unanimous decision. All three judges scored the Bout (29–28) for Swick. After the Swick fight, the UFC released Loiseau, which he said was a good decision for him since he was able to sign a good deal with EliteXC. On September 13, David Loiseau won by TKO (strikes) in Round 5 over Solomon Hutcherson at It's Crow Time. Loiseau took on Ed Herman at UFC 97 on April 18, 2009. Herman won via unanimous decision. Loiseau was subsequently released from the UFC following his loss to Ed Herman.
Loiseau plans on trying out for the eleventh season of The Ultimate Fighter.
