Keith Krikorian Set for Rematch Against Landon Elmore at UFC BJJ 8
Armenian-American jiu-jitsu star Keith Krikorian is ready to face Landon Elmore in a highly anticipated rematch at UFC BJJ 8, having officially made weight for their showdown at the Meta APEX in Las Vegas.
Krikorian, a black belt from 10th Planet San Diego and the 2022 ADCC Trials champion, boasts an impressive record of 66 professional grappling victories, with 44 achieved by submission. His previous appearance under the UFC BJJ banner was a resounding success, where he submitted João Assonitis with a face crank in the second round at UFC BJJ 1.
The upcoming match marks a rematch from the EBI 25 final, where Elmore emerged victorious by executing a heel hook on Krikorian. This match is particularly significant, as Elmore completed a stunning run in that tournament, submitting all his opponents within regulation time.
Krikorian’s opportunity to reclaim his standing comes on one of UFC BJJ’s biggest cards to date. Fans can catch the live stream of UFC BJJ 8 for free on YouTube at 8 p.m. ET, making it a must-watch event for grappling enthusiasts.
