Media Anthony Smith: I'm fighting a middleweight "because every single LHW" DUCKED me

He's fought #2 (loss), #5 (loss), #7 (loss), #8 (loss), #9 (win), so that only leaves Prochazka, Hill, Blachowicz and Krylov.

Hill obviously took the fight but is now injured, Ankalaev and Krylov are both in Parts Unknown, and Jan isn't wasting his time on that fight.

I don't really know who he wanted to fight TBH.

Yes not wanting to derail your career with him isn't the same as ducking. You get nothing for your efforts and really throw your career in the toilet if you lose to him. There's plenty of guys that fall in that category.
 
Anybody heard from Krylov? Dude disappeared after his last win.
