Anthony Smith is so bad....

When you cut weight I guess?
Yeah I was just being sarcastic because the guy posted pics of Smith's losses at Middleweight.
Given it's been proven weight cuts reduce your ability to absorb strikes, it seems ridiculous to judge a LHW fighter on his ancient history MW defeats. That's like saying Demetrious is terrible because he lost at 135. Or that Rumble is a shit fighter for losing at Welterweight
 
The LHW division is a wasteland in flames. It is hard to watch, so I don't.

Far better than HW. HW is so bad a fighter in JDS that is a good 5 years past his prime is on the verge of another shot..
 
To me, Anthony Smith is fun to watch like and Mike Kyle and Matt Brown we're a few years ago with their resurgences. It may run it's course, or he may show that he's a totally different fighter at LHW. Either way, he's fun to watch.
 
Excuse me? I fucking love Smith. He made me money vs. Volk and vs. Gus. I've defended him numerous times across numerous threads.

Do you ever notice how often you're incorrect?
lol

You’ve never once proven me wrong. You just bail.

And i see. You didn’t disagree with my post you were just being a douche. Got it.
 
He is pretty underrated.

Had one of the best career resurgences ever.


LHW Lawler 2.0
No that's going way too far. Smith could have had Gus out of there in 2. He doesn't throw enough. He thinks he's a better striker than he is. He tries to box. He needs to throw 10x more punches and Land First. I like Smith and his story, but do not compare Smith's entire career to Lawler/ Rory or Lawler/Condit. And u add a 2.0? Nah, bro. No. I was screaming for Smith to just fucking Throw last night. If Smith understood his own limitations he would be better against the top of the division. He's not really a kill or be killed fighter. I don't really like that. Last night yeah my streak continues.. picked Smith so hard I said Gus wasn't even worth hedging. But.. I wasn't that impressed if you compare him to prime UFC Champ Lawler ffs. Smith thinks he is soooooo much better than he is. That is both good, and concerning to me. His kicks are so fucking weak and he seriously lacks volume. He doesn't trust his own chin and it can be frustrating to watch. Smith does not exchange. He waits, throws, waits, throws, stares, waits, throws, stares, fight is over.

I never claimed to disagree with your post, I targeted you directly for your behaviour on this forum. Reading comprehension may really help you in your future endeavours.
 
I personally root for a guy like Ant, someone who’s paid their dues to the sport and arrived where he’s at through hard work, blood, sweat and determination... he wasn't blessed by being born with physical advantages like an 84” reach or a cast iron chin, It’s hard for me to dislike a guy who’s walked the trail that’s Anthony Smith... I wish he receives the accolades he deserves similar to the way Bisping did, but without the ducking once he achieved gold.

He is bad because his record against non-washed up fighters is terrible.
