Welterweights Jake Ellenberger and Jorge Masvidal have a date, as they will square off at The Ultimate Fighter 24 Finale this December.
Ellenberger (31-11) saved his UFC career with a win over Matt Brown in July. The former contender had lost five of six to that point, but became the first fighter to stop Brown via strikes when he peppered him with shots.
Masvidal (30-11) has been left waiting for an opponent after fights with Kelvin Gastelum and others were switched. “Gamebred” is 2-2 since moving up to welterweight.
The Ultimate Fighter 24 Finale takes place December 3 from The Pearl at The Palms Casino in Las Vegas. In the main event, Demetrious Johnson is expected to defend his flyweight title vs. the winner of TUF 24.
