EMERALD CITY INVITATIONAL 4: GRIPPO, KRIKORIAN, & CISNEROS ANNOUNCED

Gianni Grippo – the current Emerald City Invitational 145lbs champion – is one of the competitors who’ll take the 155lbs title challenge. If he succeeds, he’ll be the promotion’s first-ever double champion.
Grippo has been nothing short of impressive in his performances under the promotion so far, but perhaps the most memorable one was against Ellis Karadag; in which he ripped a brutal Heel Hook which went viral.

Keith Krikorian, a BJJ black belt since the end of 2020, is another competitor who’s been announced for Emerald City Invitational 4. He’s coming off a strong 2021, where he won a High Rollerz tournament, became a Combat Jiu-Jitsu Featherweight world champion; and lost his final ADCC North American East Coast Trials match against Cole Abate.

And finally, Josh Cisneros is the third grappler announced by the promotion. A BJJ black belt from California, Cisneros is a 2020 Pan-Ams light featherweight division champion (gi); as well as a 2021 Pan-Ams featherweight division silver medal winner (no-gi).
