Tim Elliott will take his next Ultimate Fighting Championship assignment on less than a week’s notice.
The former flyweight challenger will replace Allan Nascimento and lock horns with Su Mudaerji at UFC Fight Night 233 on Saturday. Elliott recently confirmed the news on social media. The new matchup was initially reported by Patrick McCorry, while Ag.Fight brought word of Nascimento’s withdrawal. Elliott vs. Mudaerji will be contested at bantamweight.
UFC Fight Night 233 takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and is headlined by a bantamweight scrap pitting Yadong Song against Chris Gutierrez.
