Tim Elliott had a lot to gain from The Ultimate Fighter 24. Not just a ticket back to the UFC, but also a shot at UFC gold. TUF 24 was a unique season of the long-running reality television show, as it gathered 16 regional champions to determine longtime flyweight titleholder Demetrious Johnson’s next challenger. Elliott was the Titan FC champ going into the show.
Things couldn’t have gone better for Elliott on TUF 24. He kicked his stint on the show off with a submission win over Charlie Alaniz, and then tapped out Matt Schnell in the quarterfinals.
