SAN DIEGO – The submission came remarkably easy for Anthony Smith.
After an early takedown from Smith and then a scramble, Lumumba Sayers forced the fight to the mat. Smith, though, slapped on a triangle choke with relative ease to prompt a first-round submission victory.
The middleweight bout was part of the main card of Saturday’s “Strikeforce: Rousey vs. Kaufman” event at Valley View Casino Center in San Diego.
