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:

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

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.

Reigning UFC flyweight kingpin Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson has put a serious hurting on the 125-pound division since becoming the inaugural champion in 2012.

He has since defended his strap an ultra-impressive eight-straight times, and has come away with five finishes in those eight victories. His most recent accomplishment was a breath taking one, as “Mighty Mouse” demolished former Olympic gold medalist Henry Cejudo in the first round of their bout at last month’s UFC 197 from Las Vegas, Nevada.

Some may argue that Johnson has already cleared out the division, an argument that has the UFC scrambling to create intriguing matchups for their flyweight title holder.

It was recently announced that the winner of the upcoming 24th season of The Ultimate Fighter will receive an immediate title shot and take on Johnson at the finale next December.

Somewhat surprising news then came out tonight (May 18, 2016) as well, indicating that the champion isn’t willing to sit around and wait until then.

UFC Tonight’s Megan Olivi reported that Johnson will next defend his title against No. 8-ranked Wilson Reis in the co-main event of July 30’s UFC 201 from Atlanta, Georgia.

Reis has won three of his last four bouts including victories over the likes of Joey Sanchez, Scott Jorgensen, and Dustin Ortiz. Most recently, he earned a decision over Ortiz last January.

UFC 201 will be headlined by a welterweight title clash, as reigning 170-pound champion Robbie Lawler defends his title against Tyron Woodley.
