Gallery Nikita Krylov def. Ovince Saint Preux at UFC 236: Best photos ATLANTA – Nikita Krylov wasn’t even two years into his professional MMA career when he first met Ovince Saint Preux inside the octagon, at UFC 171. So it’s really no surprise when Krylov (24-6 MMA, 6-4 UFC) says that when they met again five years later, in the pay-per-view main card of Saturday’s UFC 236, things felt “completely different.” They looked different, as well; after needing less than 90 seconds to catch Krylov with a Von Flue choke then, Saint Preux (23-12 MMA, 11-7 UFC) was the one tapping to a choke this time around. But there’s one thing that hasn’t changed. Krylov had never needed the judges’ scorecards back then and that remains the case now.
