Who is Gina Mazany?

Gina Marie Mazany, born on August 19, 1988, is an American mixed martial artist who has competed in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Hailing from Anchorage, Alaska, Mazany began her athletic journey as a figure skater during her younger years. Afterward, she ventured into combat sports, and at the age of 18, she made her debut in boxing. Shortly thereafter, Mazany transitioned to mixed martial arts (MMA).

Mazany's professional MMA career started in August 2008, initially competing in independent promotions. She amassed an undefeated record of 4-0 before securing a spot in the UFC in 2017. Despite achieving a total of 8 wins and 6 losses in her 14 fights, Mazany faced difficulties during her tenure in the UFC, as per current-affairs.org. She participated in nine fights within the Octagon, winning three and losing six, before being released from the promotion in April 2022. 

Inside Tim Elliott and Gina Mazany's marriage

Tim Elliott and Gina Mazany were involved in a committed and long-term relationship. The couple initially crossed paths while pursuing their respective careers in MMA. After dating for a period of time, they got engaged on July 28, 2020, and eventually exchanged vows on October 28, 2022. Their shared love for MMA helped forge a strong connection between them, solidifying their bond as a couple. However, the pair are no longer in a relationship as Elliott alleges that Mazany is currently in a relationship with Croom. 

Elliott claims to have discovered the alleged infidelity through text messages sent by Mazany to a friend. He also states that Mazany later confessed to him. He also says that the wedding night cheating happened as he went back home to put his daughter to sleep, leaving Mazany behind due to the presence of out-of-state friends. Mazany has recently deleted her Instagram account, although there are still several posts of the former couple on Elliott's page. 

Who is Kevin Croom?

Kevin Croom is a professional mixed martial artist from Columbia, Missouri. He has been competing in MMA since 2009 and has fought for various promotions such as CES, LFA, Fighting Alliance Championship, Bellator, and UFC. Croom is a former CES featherweight champion and former FAC featherweight champion. He made his UFC debut in 2020 as a lightweight and later moved to the featherweight division.

Croom's last fight in the UFC was against Alateng Heili in 2022, which he lost by TKO in the first round. He was subsequently released from the UFC and is now signed with BKFC. Even Mazany was cut by the UFC last April following losses. Tim Elliott has not competed in the UFC, following his victory over Tagir Ulanbekov by unanimous decision at UFC 272. However, his next scheduled fight is set to take place on June 3, where he will face Victor Altamirano. 

'Head up bro it gets better!'

Internet users were quick to sympathize and support Elliot. One user wrote, "Talk about a villain arc bro. Sorry to hear that but guarantee for each one there’s someone else that’s amazing. Been there. Head up bro it gets better." A second tweeted, "For sure painful but at least you found out and be strong enough to walk away." Another added, "Head up Tim! You’re a true warrior." A user claimed, "You deserve better. You have tons of family and love in Vegas. Better days ahead." Another chimed in, "Hang in there bud. The fans got lots of love for you."
