The Anatomy of UFC 235 - Episode 1 (Anthony Smith's life changing move to Light Heavyweight)

#JONJONES
#ANTHONYSMITH
#UFC235
Anthony Smith is one of those interesting fighters, that you know has been in the sport of MMA for a long time, but until you hear his story and journey, you won't be able to understand, why this 10 to 1 underdog truly believes he is the man to defeat the greatest fighter in MMA history. I had the chance to catch up with Lionheart as he ended his week and prepares for the biggest fight of his life. Here is the preview..

Hard to not like Anthony Smith

[@TheNickJonathan]

@SS not u couldnt wtf

[@adb8003]

SS No you couldn’t 😂

[@jackjackson3471]

@SS you could. It wouldn't be true, but you could.

[@toddsimone7182]

It's easy for me

[@roninslv]

I like Anthony, I'm not convinced that he can beat Jon, But I'm rooting for him.

[@mirkoboysen1314]

"The whole meat and potatoes of it is the ice cream...!" Marc Montoya

[@Dottor_J]

From what I've seen and heard from interviews, Anthony seems a very humble and real man. Great fighter but he's against the most dangerous fighter in the roster and it's hard to picture him with the LHW belt (but it would be incredible to see). Great footage Will (as usual), no one has content like yours

My boy Anthony the most Brazilian lookin white dude on Earth!

@Dnomyar Akunawik his skin is fully white wouldnt notice any black in it.

[@takecareofyourunderwears7790]

@@MrRK0121 I thought so as well but after seeing him younger with curly hair that by the way his children also have there's definitely something here. A "slight" mix I'd say but still.

[@IronReef77]

I wish Smith well, I want him to beat Jon but man, pple need to not only be in great shape but their fighting skills need to be at 1000. Plus mental most importantly. We'll see how he looks when he makes that walk and steps in the cage with Jon cause that's usually when reality kicks in. I would love for Smith to win

[@Theloveevannalynch]

Rooting for this guy so hard

[@azureavocado5195]

[@imran.alshabazz]

Let's go, Lionheart! You got this, champ✊

Best MMA channel on KZbin, no one brings content like AOAF. Thanks for all the consistent uploads. You're an absolute legend.

[@qigong1001]

Well, lets not write him off totally. The guy has a ton of experience. He'll put up a good fight.

[@iiNeedSkins]

Would love to see Smith pull off the upset, but I just don't see it happening. Jones via TKO.

[@Zjrhr]

Yes i dont believe it will be easy through. 4th round.

[@iiNeedSkins]

@@Zjrhr I agree, I feel he's a lot better then his record would have most believe. He is 14-2 in his last 16 over 5 years. He is definitely no pushover!

[@friedmotherboards2395]

Yes He def has more experience than Jon and has knock out power. Jon doesn’t do good against pressure and he was getting tagged in the pocket by DC. Jon is still the best and well rounded fighter and sure will negate his pressure with his reach

[@christopherlouie1671]

I'm so proud to see how this channel has grown! I remember the days of just a few subs and too few views on such amazing content. It's only gotten better brother! Keep it up.

[@g3ntl323]

I love this dude. He is real. I also love Jones. Gotta say though. When I really think about it. I would love to see Anthony win. Nothing away from Jones. Just Smith is just a better person.

[@dibit79]

Why because hes white?.

[@unbelievablescenes]

SS you should probably look up ‘fact’ in the dictionary fella

[@kephartacus5454]

[@borisbadenov9863]

Thanks for doing an interesting quality video on Anthony Smith man! Often things are about Jon Jones because he is the champ, but the story of the underdog is way more interesting. Especially when the fighter is like able.

[@BirdsOfGlass]

I got Lionheart with the greatest upset in MMA history.

[@mommasboy34]

Fuck that would be nice. I would never make that bet but whoever does will be rich

[@MrTonyProductionz]

I have a gut feeling that smith might get that knock out but there is still some doubt bc I'm a major jones fan. But if it happens I would shit my pants

[@ryansylvan9277]

I remember when Seth petrozelli KOd kimbo slice within seconds.

[@michaelpierce2018]

Anthony Smith has gotten better and better with every fight! I feel he has the best chance at defeating Jones. GO LION HEART!

[@TranscendentalTunes]

If Smith had a longer reach he'd have a good shot. But I'm 100% rooting for Lionheart anyway

[@evanparrafx]

Smith is only 3 inches under Gustafsson and Gus was able to tag Jones a lot during their first fight. Smith has much more KO power than Gus and Jones too. He's pretty accurate and moves well also. It's actually not too crazy to see Smith getting a win. It's just not an easy fight.

[@Master12020]

the whole meat and potatoes of it is the ice cream ! quote of the century @ 5:38

[@foxybrown2]

He just has to have really studied Jones because he has so many tricks up his sleeve . Jone Jones is not your ordinary fighter. May the best man win. Go for it Anthony.

[@bigsmoke9895]

Embedded vs AOF ... lets go!!!

[@RDodderBiodiversity]

Respect to all the warriors who have fought John Bones. In my opinion, Antony Smith is the first real contender who looks like he can dethrone John Jones. . .

[@kingsamoanOG]

Anthony seems like a cool dude but Pico Jones is just on another Level. Guaranteed Jones will chop his legs down until he breaks and finish him just like he did to Gus!!!!

[@sid4167]

if he can do it...it will be the biggest upset in the ufc !!!

[@charlesbell5500]

That's fair. But what about Holly vs Ronda? Everyone knows Smith can land a lucky shot and catch Jon and finish him. No one gave Holly the slightest chance.

[@sid4167]

If Smith wins this I'll have some faith restored in this world.

I'm a huge fan of jones from day one but why do I get the feeling smith might knock jones out?

[@andydavis1508]

Tri if smith can get inside on Jon he has a chance in a dog fight Jon so long keeps u at the end of them kicks Jon will break him , I think smith is very good but not to sure if he can beat Jon yet . And STill !!!!

[@goodstuff8953]

I like smith but ive been rooting for bones since he beat bader. I think jones has already faced many better strikers than smith, so he should dominate.

In this sport anything can happen! No matter who wins, it should be a really interesting fight!

[@waddupvato8150]

Anthony ‘I’m not the type of guy’ Smith

[@ascott7414]

Hello Anthony, Just like to inform you that although I (and the rest of the worlds population) highly doubt you’ll even be able to touch Mr Picogram without being KO’d unconscious or headkicked into next year when you meet on March 2nd, we are all routing for you in your attempts on slaying that baby killing bastard. In the very minuscule chance you manage to catch Jones with an extremely lucky shot and put him away the whole world will be extremely, extremely greatful. Best of luck, you’re definitely going to need it.

[@phillyphilly1076]

Idk but I have a feeling man. I have a feeling this dude is going to take the W.

[@kephartacus5454]

Feelings over facts is always funny.

[@TeddyParker]

Maycee is fucking terrifying. That division has a monster hiding under the bed and I'm not sure if they know it yet. As long as her team game plans the opponent correctly, that pace is a division killer...

[@talhahbilal8114]

Lion heart for the win!!

[@saintnick604]

6:20 Can guarantee you if we go back to Anthony and his coach leading up to this cut it was "I'm the strongest I've ever been, I have no injuries, I feel better than I did for my last fight" after the loss "that weight cut was terrible."

[@mowglydebbarma9716]

This time is for lion heart

[@morriskl3]

If he can stop the takedown the fans are in for a treat!!!

[@francescolapietra930]

I really hope that lionheart takes the W because he is a true fighter, but he is fighting the most talented fighter in the history of fighting. Everything and everyone is against him and that's also what makes me want him to win so much, classic underdog story. This is Apollo vs Rocky!

[@Witnes13]

I have this weird weird feeling this fight might not be what we are expecting. At the bare minimum, I say Anthony Smith might just win this. Imagine this. Jon Jones getting Knocked out....the whole world will go hysterical.

[@andrewrussell5944]
