Spoiler: Some Cable Company Program Guides Are Revealing the TUF 24 Winner

mighty-mouse-fullblast-202

Rob Hinds, a well-known MMA referee, judge, and Association of Boxing Commissions-certified instructor for both forms of officiating, tweeted this on Saturday night:

https://twitter.com/hindsmmareferee/status/802703593929318400

When asked what cable company he has, Hinds obliged us with further details:

https://twitter.com/hindsmmareferee/status/802722786745741313

It wasn’t exactly a well-kept secret who was winning this season of The Ultimate Fighter, and Tim Elliott was realistically the favorite going in, but this is still a bit of an unexpected error. The result had also been spoiled in some now-deleted tweets just before the season started. Elliott being the winner was also a bit of a forgone conclusion when he was shown on TUF Talk a few weeks back to be rooming with Joseph Benavides in Colorado so they could train together at Elevation MMA.

You can watch Elliott defeat Hiromasa Ogikubo in the final this Wednesday, and then he gets his flyweight title shot against Demetrious Johnson a week from tonight (Saturday December 3rd) at the finale. Benavidez faces Henry Cejudo in the co-main event.
