Anthony Smith moved from the middleweight division to the light heavyweight weight class in June 2018. Smith won that fight with a 53-second knockout win over former light heavyweight champion Rashad Evans. A little over a month later, the UFC matched Smith up against another ex-light heavyweight champ, Mauricio Rua. That run of three victories in the light heavyweight division earned Smith a shot at current UFC 205-pound champion Jon Jones. Before Smith attempts to unseat Jones from the top of the weight division, watch his knockout win over Rua right here.
