Oban Elliott, better known as "The Welsh Gangster", brings a 12-4 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as welterweight, every single win matters.
A balanced operator — 3 wins by KO, 3 by submission, 6 on the scorecards. No single weapon to game-plan around, which is exactly the problem.
He's coming off a loss to Jonathan Micallef. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
Next up: Michael Oliveira at UFC Fight Night: Medić vs. Rodriguez on August 1, 2026. Circle the date.
