W walce wieczoru gali UFC on ESPN+ 29 zmierzyło się ze sobą dwóch weteranów mieszanych sztuk walki. Do zakończenia świetnej walki doszło dopiero w piątej rundzie. Glover Teixeira bezproblemowo sprowadził Anthony’ego Smitha do parteru i zasypał go gradem ciosów, co spowodowało, iż sędzia przerwał pojedynek. Po starciu, ludzie ze świata MMA gratulowali dobrego występu obu sportowcom. Docenione zostało również efektowne zwycięstwo 40-latka. Bardzo aktywny w swoich mediach społecznościowych okazał się aktualny mistrz wagi półciężkiej – Jon Jones.
Anthony or Glover? : I have Smith winning thinking he’s made proper adjustments since his fight with JJ. But Texeira is always dangerous. “Keep them hands up AS.” #UFCJAX

I believe the high level MMA grappling of Teixeira is his clear key to victory. On the ground, he’s a monster, but has great boxing fundamentals, but I think Smith is faster, has diversity in attacks, and his chin is more durable than Teixeira. #UFCJAX #TheWeeklyScraps

Was starting to wonder if Anthony was going to last until the championship rounds. Glad he answered the bell

It seems like almost everyone who trash talk me during their fight week ends up losing. These boys thinking about being the champ instead of focusing on what it takes to get there. https://t.co/8LlrPgyHhf
