Both fighters are active wrestlers which sets up a compelling grappling battle.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Fighter Breakdown &ndash; Elijah Smith Analysis<\/strong><\/h2><p>Smith comes in with a 9-1-0 record as one of the more exciting young bantamweight prospects on the roster. The 23 year old is well-rounded across all areas that makes him a threat for anyone that is placed against him.<\/p><p><strong>Strengths:<\/strong> Strong striking volume at 4.45 significant strikes per minute. Excellent takedown accuracy at 53%. Dangerous 0.9 submission average. 6 inch height and reach advantage creates distance management edge. 9-1 record at just 23 years old with significant upside remaining.<\/p><p><strong>Weaknesses:<\/strong> Only 47% striking defense, a vulnerability against an experienced counter-fighter. 57% takedown defense is modest.Absorbs 3.40 strikes per minute, which is manageable but not elite.

Only 0.4 submission average against Smith&rsquo;s 0.9 on the ground. Three-inch height and six-inch reach disadvantage.

I was instantly hooked on MMA after watching the fight between Lyoto Machida vs. Gegard Mousasi back in 2014, and since then, i have been an avid writer with a deep love for the sport and its techniques, providing readers with a thorough understanding of the sport. My favorite aspect of working at The Playoffs is the creative freedom it provides. The diverse range of topics, from listicles and SEO to news articles, keeps me engaged and motivates me to continuously improve my skills! I aim to capture the excitement of the combat sports world in my writing, acting as the middleman between fighters and their die-hard fans.
