Elijah 'Swift' Smith is a second-generation fighter out of Factory X and son of UFC veteran Gilbert Smith, still just 23. He mixes heavy top pressure and slam offense with improving striking, and his powerbomb knockout of Toshiomi Kazama went viral in 2025. He is unbeaten in the UFC at 3-0, riding an eight-fight win streak overall, and now faces veteran gatekeeper Davey Grant, the toughest name of his career so far.
