Elliott has been eager to return to the octagon after recovering from his injury and has expressed interest in fighting Masvidal due to his beef with Chael Sonnen. There hasn't been any indication that the bout is a possibility, but that hasn't stopped 'The Welsh Gangster' from generating interest in hopes of making it a reality.

During his latest conversation with journalist Jamal Niaz, Elliott provided an update on whether there have been discussions with the UFC about a potential bout against Masvidal.

"I think that long-haired silly man might be hiding. Because I don't think he can just jump back in the UFC and fight who he wants. And if he's barking up the Chael Sonnen, you're barking up my tree, son... You might wanna change weight class, might wanna take the sport a little bit seriously, get rid of that little belly you've got and drop back down to lightweight because trust me, you don't want to be walking around the welterweight division while I'm around."
