Should be a good fight. Expecting someone to get ko'ed

Side note..how did Santos get that scar on his stomach?..

 

[chitoortiz]

Big fan of Anthony Smith, loved his KO of Lombard.

But I think Thiago might be too much for him.

I hope I'm wrong.

 

[beefcake180]

This fight promises violence

 

[Buffmeister]

Smith is a tough guy...and big for the division...he looked absolutley huuuuge against Lombard...

I think Santos can take it

[Treeloy]

Santos looks more skilled but hes lost to guys i tgought he would beat before

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Anthony who?

 

[SKITZADACTYL]

violent.


both are big MW's, with smith it's mainly his height, but santos is a fucking massive HW.

Side note..how did Santos get that scar on his stomach?..

I have wondered that myself.

It is not as prominent anymore after he got the ridiculous Donkey Kong hammer tattoo on his chest/torso.

 

[Arkridge]

Ohh, this is a good fight. Going to be very violent. A win for either guy probably gets them a ranked opponent.

 

[ryanrandy]

Lionheart by TKO rd3.

 

[Aldo145]

Smith is tough and has alot of heart. Hes gonna get the win.

 

[Just Creed]

Either a late ko for Smith or a 1st round finish for Santos.

Stomach entrance too tight at birth most likely

 

[BrazilianDude]

I wonder if Smith has any Idea how hot the arena will be. Belém is super hot and moist. I doubt they have anexo arena with AC.

 

[DLX]

Who is Santos fighting again?

 

[DarkneT]

Not sure it should be main event... but I'll watch
