UFC flyweight Tim Elliott rocked the combat sports community when he announced some behind-the-scenes details of his divorce from former UFC fighter Gina Mazzani, posting a photo from their wedding day on Twitter.
“Want to see something disgusting? This is my ‘wife’ reading vows to my daughter on our ‘wedding’ night,” Elliott wrote in a since-deleted tweet. The guy with the microphone was my friend [and] My teammate – my wife cheated on me with this guy the same night! And they have our whole ‘marriage’ affair.”
Elliott has an eight-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.
The ex-boyfriend and teammate he was referring to is Kevin Crum, a former UFC quarterback who like Mazany parted ways with the promotion after a string of losses in 2022. But Elliott insists his online complaints were not intended to hurt either party. .
“I don’t know if it was the right thing, but for me it was the right thing,” Elliott told reporters at the UFC Vegas 74 media day. “It wasn’t trying to hurt anyone else, it was trying to help myself 100%. I don’t know if it was going to hurt or help but I knew the situation I was in and how I felt it wasn’t going to be good – I was going to end up in jail or in pain or even worse That, so I didn’t. I don’t regret anything. But then again, I wouldn’t wish any hard feelings on anyone, especially Jenna. I love her. I still love and care about her, but I can’t be in her life and I can’t do anything with her. “.
Mazany recently deleted her Instagram account (I can’t imagine why). Croom’s social media channels are still active, but “Crash” hasn’t posted in several weeks. As of this writing, none of the fighters have signed up to discuss the tweet Elliott posted.
