However, the event is still to take place and the victor of the fight will be decided after the bout. Interestingly, recently smith has made a point about Leon Edwards.

Smith’s opinion on the Leon Edwards

Anthony Smith has shared his thoughts on the possibility of Leon Edwards stepping up to the middleweight division. According to the former UFC light heavyweight title contender, Edwards might not be as keen on the move if Khamzat Chimaev were the champion instead of Sean Strickland.

While having a conversation with Michael Bisping, Smith asserted “Of course, he’s going to want to move up right now. If Khamzat [Chimaev] was the champion, I don’t know if we’d see Leon running to middleweight so quickly, but I think we have a champion in Sean Strickland that he believes matches up well with him, and it stylistically makes a lot of sense.”
