Yeah but that home intruder ain't getting past USADA ✊🏼😤

[@justsayin7744]

Fights short notice all the time cause he has an out if he loses. Good for him if that’s working out

[@randyb637]

I don't understand why people hate on Anthony He's such a nice guy

[@narellano4726]

People dk how to read, they just look at headlines like idiots n dont dig further

[@puntsize]

He seems like a good guy and a family man. The negative comments towards him probably come from some of the delusional things he says. I personally don't see much negativity thrown towards him.

[@boxingprofiler1964]

@@puntsize real good point

[@mmrrcc9006]

Why is this guy still fighting no hate but I feel that he's in a similar place/level as johnny walker

[@boxingprofiler1964]

Yeah but Walker is a tool. Lionheart is an OG with a brain. Walker.. not so much

[@jaimeblanco7568]

Because they are paying him a lot of money to fight for only 15 minutes

[@mmrrcc9006]

@@jaimeblanco7568 you are right. They just get used as record boosters for upcoming fighters though and take A LOT of damage how much more money does he need he should have enough by now.

Anthony Im going to watch your fight against Shogun Rua after this but i wish you all the best in this fight . Also ty for all the memories of watching you fight I always go for you against anyone.

[@gildochiulli7568]

Show some respect, this man has had over 50 professional fights not counting the rest

[@boxingprofiler1964]

Absolutely correct. No one has to like him but everyone with any brain cells has to respect him

[@bkozican]

This is why you should only move to broadcasting once you retire

[@squeezewilliams3003]

You're a dunce

He’s making $, we need that!

Class act, and a very bad bad man. It's great to see him winning and enjoying life. Good luck on Saturday.

loses most of the time but okay

[@Yeti_StrainofSR]

@@Bike_Misping he would still beat ur ass but okay

[@Bike_Misping]

@@Yeti_StrainofSR of course he would, what are you talking about 😂 are you 12 years old or something? still loses most of his fights

[@PhilSophia-ox7ep]

I would beat yours. Does that automatically discount your judgement then too? ​@@Yeti_StrainofSR

[@Yeti_StrainofSR]

@@Bike_Misping im 33, which means i know how to add, subtract, do fractions, and count. so by knowing that i can see that 38-19 is far from losing most of his fights. in fact hes got almost twice as many wins as losses and hes been fighting the top competition in the ufc for years.

@@jamesssss621 I'm a fan, but Anthony is confusing. Sometimes he lives up to the Lionheart name. Look at the Jones or Texeira fights and you wonder what he is even thinking.

Anthony no one is scared of you, its just the weight cut at this short notice hence why your fight a middle weight. Its not rocket science.

[@reichspector2413]

Anthony would maul Alex and submit him

[@47ravenlord]

He really doesn't seem to understand why people refuse to fight him and he takes it the wrong way, as a compliment....it isn't. He is a very mediocre unranked fighter and does NOTHING for anyone's career by beating him. He isn't the name or threat he thinks he is. I used to like him before his delusional mouth got so damn big...he is insufferable now.

[@chrisnewsome4616]

Stop cappin' no one's refusing an Anthony Smith fight 😂

tell dana you want the smith fight then

[@chrisnewsome4616]

I did. Ant don't want the smoke

[@joshnagel8819]

Correct. Literally everyone ranked ahead of Smith at light heavyweight has either already beaten him, fought recently or is unavailable due to injury or suspension. There’s not a single ranked guy who has or would turn down a fight with him. Just his delusional ego talking again.

[@PurpleGengar822]

Gotta love Anthony. The only one to call out Alex cut the line in 2 divisions Pereira on his flawed MMA career instead of just saying CHAMA like a brain dead fool and glazing him

[@captainbpj8656]

Lol there is no one ducking this dude. He has been delusional his entire career. He is a d+ fighter on his very best day.

[@DynastyIcon]

d+ fighter? 🤨 he's only lost to top contenders and world champions.. stop saying dumb shii just to get likes, you sound like a goddamn casual

[@captainbpj8656]

@DynastyIcon casual??? He has 19 losses dude. Only top contenders and champions ?? He has 10 losses on his record to guys that don't even have Wikipedia pages. Do your research before you open your mouth. Fuck out of here with that casual bullshit.

[@andre49ers]

Well if you believe that and they believe that then that's why they are ducking him. Want a bigger name and move up. But guess what? It's still ducking him.

For all of the keyboard warriors... Anybody that steps into the octagon is 10 times the man or woman as you just remember that. It's not just physically dealing with the sport but mentally fighting in front of the world takes guts
