Ovince Saint Preux revisiting with first ‘Von Flue’ choke victim, Nikita Krylov, at UFC 236

Ovince Saint Preux is the owner of a rare record: He has the most shoulder choke victories in UFC history. And this weekend, Saint Preux gets a chance to add to his record against the first man he ever pulled the submission off against, Nikita Krylov.

On Saturday, Saint Preux and Krylov will rematch as the first fight on the main card of UFC 236. The two first locked horns five years ago at UFC 171, with Saint Preux submitting Krylov with a shoulder choke when the Ukrainian fighter held onto a guillotine too long.
