Tim Elliott will face rising flyweight Su Mudaerji at the upcoming UFC Fight Night event on June 26, multiple people with knowledge of the booking told MMA Fighting following a report from MMAjunkie.
Elliott (17-11-1) won back-to-back fights in the UFC with decisions over Ryan Benoit and Jordan Espinosa after a three-fight skid between 2019 and 2020. The Ultimate Fighter winner and one-time title contender won four of six since re-signing with the UFC in 2016.
Mudaerji (14-4) had a rough start in the company by losing to Louis Smolka at bantamweight, but bounced back with a decision over Andre Soukhamthath before cutting down to 125 pounds and defeating Malcolm Gordon and Zarrukh Adashev in his most recent appearances.
