A 16-year age gap hangs over this bantamweight clash at UFC Fight Night between Davey Grant and Elijah Smith. Davey is 40 and was already fighting in the UFC when Elijah Smith was 11. See what the numbers say in our Davey Grant vs Elijah Smith match prediction.

Dangerous made his UFC debut on the 2013 Ultimate Fighter finale and has never been knocked out as a pro. His last three wins all went to the judges, the latest over Adrian Luna Martinetti in April by 29-28 on all three cards. A first-round submission loss to Charles Jourdain last October is his only defeat in four fights.

Swift, meanwhile, arrived through Dana White's Contender Series and is the son of UFC veteran Gilbert Smith. He has outpointed Vince Morales, knocked out Toshiomi Kazama with a slam for a Performance of the Night bonus, and submitted SuYoung You in March. Notably, five of his ten wins have come by knockout or TKO.

What’s more, Smith at 24 is unbeaten in three UFC fights and holds a two-inch reach edge. On the other hand, Grant has not finished an opponent since March 2023. For us, the momentum is with the younger fighter, and it could end in several different ways.

Our Davey Grant vs Elijah Smith Prediction

We are backing Swift to leave Las Vegas with his hand raised, whether by stoppage or on the scorecards. Smith is 16 years younger, boasts a reach edge and has five knockout or TKO wins on his record.

Dangerous, on the other hand, is a tough veteran who has never been knocked out, so the distance is a real possibility. But he has not finished an opponent since March 2023 and has lost seven of 16 UFC fights. Hence, our Davey Grant vs Elijah Smith prediction is that Elijah Smith wins by KO, TKO, DQ, or Decision.

Prediction :

 

Smith wins by KO, TKO, DQ, or Decision
