Tim Elliott had his fight at UFC on FOX 26 yanked out from under him this past weekend when Pietro Menga didn’t weigh in and Elliott wouldn’t accept a fight at a higher weight. But it looks like he’ll get a quick turnaround to salvage his 2017 calendar year. Elliott (14-8-1 MMA, 3-6 UFC) said on Twitter that he’s fighting promotional newcomer Mark De La Rosa (9-0, 0-0 UFC) at UFC 219 next week following multiple online reports. Elliott tweeted at Jarred Brooks and criticized him for apparently turning down a chance to fight him at the event, and De La Rosa was fine picking up the opportunity.
