Former UFC interim light heavyweight title challenger Anthony Smith spoke about the valuable recommendations of the former division champion Glover Teixeira, which he plans to stick to in the twilight of his career.
āI think Iāve come to the conclusion that I still enjoy performing and I still want to keep doing it. However, I need to make some changes. Not only in the fighting style, but also in many other things.
Not long ago I had a conversation with Glover Teixeira, which I think helped me a lot. As you get older, you have to change something. The easiest thing is to just end your career, but itās much harder to rebuild in a new way. There are some things that over time you are no longer as strong as before. However, you can continue your game, but it needs to be adjusted,ā Sportskeeda quotes the American as saying.
Let us remember that the 35-year-old Smith suffered three defeats in his last four fights. The American spent his last fight on December 9 at UFC Fight Night 233, losing by TKO to Khalil Rountree.
