Tim Elliott Bio

Tim Elliott is an American mixed martial artist competing in the UFC flyweight division. As of September 14, 2026, the UFC lists him as active, training at Next Generation Gym and fighting in a freestyle-based style. Elliott is listed at 5 feet 7 inches with a 66-inch reach, and he made his Octagon debut on May 5, 2012.

Elliott turned professional in 2009 and built his UFC career around relentless wrestling pressure, scrambling and submission attacks; the UFC lists the guillotine as his preferred grappling technique. After an initial UFC stint, he returned by winning The Ultimate Fighter 24 and challenged Demetrious Johnson for the UFC flyweight title at the 2016 finale. His listed pre-UFC title achievement is the Titan FC flyweight championship, rather than an RFA championship. He has also identified Labette Community College and the University of Central Oklahoma as his college stops.
