Quickly fades in late-notice debut
Elekana lost to Bogdan Guskov via submission (guillotine choke) at 3:33 of Round 2 at UFC 311 on Saturday in Los Angeles.
ANALYSIS
Making his UFC debut, Elekana accepted this fight less than a week ago following the withdrawal of Johnny Walker (undisclosed). Elekana landed an immediate takedown and threatened on the mat before quickly gassing out. Billy was nearly choked out at the end of Round 1, only to be saved by the bell. It was one-way traffic the rest of the way. Elekana is going to get another opportunity with the company due to his willingness to "save" this fight on short notice, but little should be expected.

To debut at UFC 311
Elekana will make his UFC debut in a light heavyweight matchup against Bogdan Guskov at UFC 311 on January 18, Alex Behunin of MMA Mania reports.
ANALYSIS
Elekana has just a 7-1 pro record at the age of 29, but he has competed under the banners of respected promotions such as LFA (2-1) and PFL (2-0). He gets this short-notice opportunity due to the late withdrawal of Johnny Walker (undisclosed) from the card. Elekana most recently picked up a first round victory over Jureall Simmons last July while fighting for the California-based Lights Out Xtreme Fighting. He now draws Guskov, who is on a two-fight UFC winning streak. Elekana sits as roughly a (+250) betting underdog with just a few days before weigh-ins.
