The top in the LHW and HW divisions is like 4 fighters.

We are talking about Johnny Walker here. Yes, Anthony Smith would have absolutely wrecked him back then

yeah and 5 yrs ago Johnny Walker was mopping the floor with guys like Khalil Rountree and Misha Cirkunov. i don't think Anthony Smith of all people would've "wrecked" him.

Cirkunov is 6-7 in the UFC and Khalil's best win is Paul Craig. Not exactly something to brag about.

yeah and Anthony Smith just got tooled by Johnny Walker today. we're talking about 5 yrs ago. 5 yrs ago Anthony Smith was making his name off of beating Rashad Evans and the ghost of Shogun. his lone legit win was vs Volkan. he also got folded in half by Thiago Santos before that. you forgot to mention Khalil had just destroyed Glory Legend Gokhan Saki before Johnny slept him. Justin Ledet was 9-1 with his only loss being to Rakic by decision and Walker blew him away too.

This. Dude has been subpar this whole time.
Don't mean to knock the dude but he has two highlights...Almost "DQ" vs Goat and a crackhead robbery fight.
His commentary is mediocre. Bisping blessed his life. Also when he speaks he talks as if he too has been a top 3 fighter his career.

Luke “the Invader” Haberman took his soul. Imagine being a 6’3 230lb UFC title contender, and then realizing you can’t put away a scrawny kid in a real fight. That 155lb teen took him to a 3 round split decision in his own living room.
I know the incident itself and home invasions aren’t funny, but just imagine the ego death he must have suffered as a fighter after this. How can you build up the confidence to think you can beat trained 230lb killers in their athletic prime, when you know in your heart you couldn’t even put away a 150lb untrained civilian?
That home invasion ruined him psychologically as a fighter. Jones played upon this after the Glover beatdown on Anthony, when he tweeted “Good thing Glover wasn’t looking for a TV that night”.. pretty messed up to twist the knife like that but it’s true, what good are these martial arts when at a time it matters most a kid high on drugs can take you to your limit? Buy guns for home protection, not BJJ classes.

No way
Dom might have moments were his short mans syndrome get the best of him but he is much more intelligent and better spoken than Anthony

Dom absolutely sucks at commentating tbh sir.
Listen to his analysis, and how he explains things...awful.

Done in the top? He was never close to the top. Decent fighter but he was waaaaay behind the elite. The only truly great win is against Gus, but at that time Smith’s grandmother would have subbed Gus with ease.
