Tim Elliott (22-14-1) versus Edgar Chairez (14-6-0) is a UFC Flyweight battle on Saturday night at the Desert Diamond Arena in Arizona. Tim Elliott is a veteran UFC fighter who is now on his second stint with the franchise. He has gone 8-8 since returning to the UFC in December 2016, winning two of his last three fights. Elliott will be keen to bounce back from his unanimous decision loss against Erceg and reestablish himself in the division. He’s the +162 underdog this weekend.
Edgar Chairez, meanwhile, is the in-form fighter ahead of this contest, making him the -243 betting favorite. The 30-year-old Mexican bruiser defeated three of his last four opponents, including victories in his last three assignments. “Puro Chicali” showed his dangerous finishing power when he submitted Bruno Silva in Round 1 in June this year. He’ll be fighting to extend his winning streak in the division and possibly get himself in the title conversation.

Our Tim Elliott vs Edgar Chairez Prediction
At 39-years old, Tim Elliott is certainly not getting any faster or stronger. He may struggle to contain the younger and faster Chairez, who holds a significant 5-inch reach advantage. The Mexican has already shown that he has some elite grappling skills lately. He can mix that with his powerful striking to send Elliott to an early shower, even if this fight stays on its feet. However, we cannot underestimate Elliott’s experience. The American has landed 63 takedowns in the division, the highest number in the flyweight competition. Still, age should be a big factor in this matchup. We see Chairez winning via stoppage.
Our prediction for Tim Elliott vs Edgar Chairez: The fight not going the distance.
