UFC Fight Night: Smith vs. Teixeira - Winners and Losers
Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images The UFC’s second event in less than a week amidst the COVID-19 crisis went relatively well, until the third round of the main event. After that, it just got depressing. 40-year-old Glover Teixeira beat the living hell out of Anthony Smith for the final ten minutes of the contest, appearing to have even knocked out some of the teeth of Smith. Normally, when something like that happens, the contest is stopped. Not in this case. While Teixeira’s performance was impressive, it will certainly be overshadowed by the controversy over the late stoppage of the fight. Too bad it also overshadows the rest of the card.
