UFC Fight Night: Alexander Gustafsson v. Anthony Smith

Who will WIN this FIGHT?

Alexander Gustafsson (SWE)

Anthony Smith (USA)

 

Current odds:

Alexander Gustafsson: (-305)

Anthony Smith: (+235)

 

Smith made a really fun and improbable run up into title contention, but against elite competition, in the relative primes of their careers, it’s still very hard to pick him. That win over Oezdemir showed that he has the toughness and heart to make a lot of fights fun, especially since he’s a natural finisher when he gets the chance.

If Gustafsson can keep his jab working, throw combinations when he’s in the pocket – and not get hurt too bad when Smith uncorks something powerful and creative at him – then he should be able to either win on points, or land the kind of strikes that get Smith shelling up and put him away.
