Anthony Smith is currently on a two-fight streak winning, with five victories in his last six bouts. All of them were knockouts. As he heads into Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 138, which he’ll headline opposite recent title challenger Volkan Oezdemir (15-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC), it’s safe to say Smith (30-13 MMA, 6-3 UFC) is at a pretty great spot in his career – a spot that could even, feasibly, lead to a 205-pound title shot in the not-so-distant future. But if you go into Smith’s Twitter profile, you’ll notice that the pinned tweet that sits atop it doesn’t highlight one of the many ups the former middleweight has experienced recently. Rather, it’s a picture of his last down: a knockout loss to Thiago “Marreta” Santos at UFC Fight Night 125, in February. The fact that that tweet is still there is no oversight.
