Evan Elder isn’t wasting any time as he aims to rise through the UFC’s lightweight ranks. After a triumphant submission win in July, Elder is eager to keep the momentum going, pushing for two more fights before the end of the year.
Known for his fearless approach, Elder jumped at the chance to fight on just four days’ notice last month. His relentless drive to seize opportunities and face challenges head-on led him to a victory over Darrius Flowers, despite the odds being stacked against him.
Elder’s recent success is part of a larger plan to make up for lost time after a year on the sidelines. With back-to-back wins and a renewed focus after relocating to Las Vegas, the 27-year-old is determined to keep improving and make a name for himself in the UFC.
Now based in Las Vegas, Elder is taking full advantage of the UFC Performance Institute, prioritizing recovery and growth as he sets his sights on climbing the lightweight ladder. With his eyes on future opportunities, Elder is ready to take on all challengers and continue his ascent in the UFC.
As 2024 approaches, Elder’s journey is just beginning, and he’s committed to showcasing a better version of himself every time he steps into the Octagon.
