Anthony Smith not killing himself to make 185 is going to be super dangerous.

I think the monstars stole Rashad Evens talent. 😒

That fight made no sense. I am a big Rashad fan. Smith is a beast.

Tough watching a former champion fight on early prelims and get badly KO’d. You finish your career making highlight reels or featuring on someone else’s if you hang around too long. Tough tough sport.

I’m a big fan of @SugaRashadEvans. Loved watching his rise from last pick on TUF to LHW champ of the world. I would like to see him retire with that body of work still intact and respected. @ufc
