Anthony Smith, former UFC bantamweight title challenger, explained why he lost in his last fight to Khalil Rountree.

"I made a lot of adjustments. Had to adjust my game and be a little bit more responsible on defense, work on the little details of my preparation and try to get a little bit better. I mean, for the Rountree fight, I came out to fight with no preparation. So I didn't know that Khalil Rountree gave a fair assessment of what level my game was at," said Smith.

Recall, the fight between Smith and Rountree was held in December last year, ending with a victory Khalil TKO in the third round.
