The Film Room: Mauricio Rua vs. Anthony Smith

Fresh off his knockout of Rashad Evans two weeks ago, Anthony Smith will get a chance to bring down another MMA legend when he battles former Ultimate Fighting Championship light heavyweight titleholder Mauricio Rua in the UFC Fight Night 134 main event on Sunday in Hamburg, Germany.

Although his best days have long since passed, “Shogun” finds himself on a three-fight winning streak -- his longest run of sustained success in more than a decade. However, the oft-injured 36-year-old Brazilian has not competed since March 2017.

The latest installment of The Film Room series puts the Rua-Smith clash under the microscope.
