Can Glover Teixeira make a UFC title run? And when should the main event have been stopped?
The main event of Wednesday's UFC Fight Night card in Jacksonville, Florida elicited strong reactions for two drastically different reasons.
On the one hand, 40-year-old Glover Teixeira was praised for his fourth straight win, this one coming over Anthony Smith, who just over a year ago was facing Jon Jones for the light heavyweight title.
On the other hand, the damage inflicted on Smith caused several fighters on social media to speak out that the fight should have been stopped much sooner. Daniel Cormier, who was working the broadcast from cage side, agreed.
