Holy ****! Not one - but two spinning back kicks that dropped Smith in the first round. Things don't look good for Hands of Steel Smith. Cung Le looks as sharp as ever.
Cung Le looked tired in the 2nd round. I thought Smith my stop it in the 3rd. Then the 3rd round started, and I thought Le had it in the bag. I was mistaken. I thought movies would be the end of Cung Le's mma career. Le came to the sport late, and made it his second priority. I like the guy, and wish him well. Le has nothing to be ashamed of.
Scott Smith does it agian this dude is probablly the greatest comeback artist of all time in any sport at this point. Also thumbs up to him for putting an end to the Cung Le hype train ... hopefully.
WTF, I thought Le was the #1 threat in the World to Anderson Silva. You guys most be playing a practicle joke?
I had a feeling Smith would pull it out. I've been a fan of Cung's since his SS days. Sucks to see him lose. He's too old and too distracted to be a real threat now days. GL Cung
:rofl All he had left was a couple of nostrils. I missed the third quarter of the game cause the Thompson vs Melendez fight was more entertaining!
That was awesome from Scott Smith. That's what I love about this guy. He gets pounded on for round after round, but all it takes is one punch to turn it all around. Hands of Steel indeed... Cung Le has excellent kicks and looks impressive against limited opposition. But it's probably best for his career at the tender age of 37 that he got derailed by a journeyman. Can you imagine he went on to face Dan Henderson? That would have been murder in the ring. Cung can make more money and break less bones in Hollywood. Go back to the movies, Mr. Le. And Scott Smith, keep making some of the most exciting comebacks I've ever seen :shock:
Pretty bad loss for Le; Smith was another custom made fighter for Le, a guy with heart but not going to look to take him down but also not a credentialed striker. So while Le looked good for 2 1/2 rounds, his lack of early finishes came back to haunt him, while his lack of quality competition makes it look worse.
