Fifita's workload across 16 United Rugby Championship appearances reflects a lock used heavily in both phases, averaging over seven tackles and six carries per match. His defensive output stands as his most defining trait, with a peak of 14 tackles in a single game underscoring his reliability at the breakdown and in the line. While his carries are consistent rather than explosive in terms of metres gained, his willingness to take the ball into contact repeatedly makes him a high-usage forward in Connacht's pack.
