Not gonna happen

[@MAIOROVS]

@@beamng06 Spann was having all possible ways to finish Smith, but some how find the way to lose 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ryansteffens852]

not watching tape on your opponent doesn't seem like very good preparation

[@ImUrZaddy]

and he’s even ranked #11, LHW is so shallow it’s not even funny, Pereira will be champ for a long time

[@PyroCham]

He always says that sort of thing. I remember one time in his octagon interview after he finished Reyes, he told Joe Rogan that he never trained for a fight before

[@habowtat3576]

​@@PyroChami remember that post fight. And he said he finally trained and that's how he won LMAO. I was confused as fuck to hear that, but I'm pretty sure he was being hyperbolic

[@beamng06]

His coaches watch the tape. Pretty normal for fighters not to watch tape when they pay a team around them to come up with the game plan

[@fallguy3652]

Wow he’s in a really good mood this week compared to normal interviews leading up to

[@christandcombat]

Thanks Junkie for the interview! We just broke down the meaning of Spann's "Armor of God" t-shirt on our channel that he talks about at 1:46

[@reekhavoc2932]

Rooting for you ryan! 🇺🇸🥊🥋

[@neverlandgrounds1225]

I get the cape, but what's with the bonnet?

[@mikemichaels2914]

Cutting weight and forgot to take shower cap off and took shower curtain with him?

[@wildberry752]

To cover the braids

[@HueyPicksMMA]

8:08 did you listen to the interview?

When you tat the Superman logo on your chest and say your daughter asked you to wear the cape 😂☠️👏

Can i trust you Ryan?

[@LINY94xo]

I wouldn’t back it with Currency if that’s what you mean

[@loz1991]

What was controversial about the smith rematch? He landed one big shot and thats it, that doesnt win you 3 rounds

[@corinacotter6606]

Spann won that fight

[@Luigi-tv3fs]

Delusional ​@@corinacotter6606

[@matthewthompson7012]

Spann won that last one against Smith. Those judges are prolly still high off whatever they were smokin that night.

[@Rob_Kankerboef]

No way, easy 1 & 3 Smith

[@JohnnyGeeMMA]

The worlds dumbest fighter👏🏼

[@Canvas58027]

2:03 smith

[@tylerbolis5137]

U have not watched any film? Maybe that's why anthony Smith has beaten u 2 times. U just think u r that good to not watch any film? I don't understand.

[@UberWolf712]

Alot of fighters let the coaches watch tape

[@loz1991]

I dont know why they acted as if it was a controversial loss in the rematch, he landed one big shot on smith in 3 rounds which probably won him the 1 round. Smith won the other 2 pretty clearly

[@MAIOROVS]

Span lose give me 8k$ last time, keep go against again 💰

[@tylerbolis5137]

@UberWolf712 that doesn't matter. Anyone that is great at their certain sport watches and studies tape on their opponent. From NBA to MMA. And it shows with Spann. How do u let anthony smith out technique you? Even Walker dismantled Smith. Not watching tape is just pure delusion and laziness.

[@MAIOROVS]

@@tylerbolis5137 I’m telling you secret 🤫 when I hear first time how Spann is laughing, instant put Smith in my parley , and when I watch actual fight, I can see clearly lack of fighting IQ, that is all 😉

[@Kearnscrew]

This is why you guys don’t have fans I’m gonna show up and whatever happens happens the result was the result gods in control I’m not excited for this fight. Why should you be

[@PNW_STEFF]

Hype train dude blew up off his big nog ko who has he actually beat that's good?

[@shanehayes4328]

Anthony Smith thr worst light heavyweight I ever seen

[@mrspiff6955]

This dude is corny 😄

[@beamng06]

And he would still beat the stuffing out of you

[@MrSefiroh]

Dude putting his faith in God? Oof not a good look.
