Tim Elliott holds the #12 spot at flyweight, flying the flag for the United States — and rankings that high aren't given away, they're taken.
The game is built on grappling: 3.6 takedowns per 15 minutes, and opponents spend rounds defending instead of fighting. 8 submission wins say what happens when the defense slips. Add the southpaw stance, and the puzzle gets harder still.
He's coming off a loss to Steve Erceg. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
Next up: Édgar Cháirez at Noche UFC on September 13, 2026. Circle the date.
