Paul Craig explains call out, says his ‘Bearjew-jitsu’ is better than Anthony Smith’s

Who has the better grappling between Paul Craig and Anthony Smith? The ‘Bearjew’ would love to fight ‘Lionheart’ to find out.

On the preliminary portion of UFC London on Saturday night, Craig survived an early onslaught from Nikita Krylov and submitted him with a slick triangle choke in the first round. During his post-fight interview with Michael Bisping, the 34-year-old challenged Anthony Smith to a fight in Glasgow, Scotland.

“Glasgow? June? Anthony Smith? Five rounds? You fancy it? Let’s make it happen, UFC!,” said Craig.

Smith responded to Craig on Twitter and accepted his challenge.
