Glover Teixeira notched an impressive fifth-round TKO win over Anthony Smith in the main event of UFC Fight Night 171 from VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida.
Lionheart wasted no time getting started. He was the aggressor early on and attacked the Brazilian's lead leg with kicks and worked behind his jab. The only thing that could reverse his momentum was a low blow that Smith had to take time to recover from.
Still, after the mid-round break it was mostly Smith winning the exchanges with Teixeira firing back hooks or leg kicks in return.
