In the main event two ranked light-heavyweights will do battle as former title challenger Anthony Smith attempts to get back in the win column by defeating Aleksandar Rakic. Smith recently fought in the main event bout against Glover Teixeira that saw him finished late in the fight. Rakic is also coming off a loss back in 2019 when he was edged out in a decision against Volkan Oezdemir. With a win one of these fighters will be able to position themselves closer to the currently vacant light-heavyweight title. In the co-main event will see the return of former welterweight champion Robbie Lawler as a short-notice replacement to take on Neil Magny. After Geoff Neal was forced to pull from the fight due to illness, Lawler was booked as the replacement taking on ranked Magny who is currently coming off a two-fight winning streak.

In the UFC Vegas 8 main event, we have a top tier light-heavyweight match-up between former title challenger Anthony Smith and rising star Aleksandar Rakic. Both men are coming off a loss but still remain in the 205lb mix. Who will get the win and propel themselves into title contention? Let’s see what the LowKickMMA staff think…
Jordan Ellis: I really think this fight could go either way. Both Anthony Smith and Aleksandar Rakic are capable of find thing finish tonight. I give a slight edge to Smith just because I have seen him compete at this level more often. Rakic lost his biggest fight to date against Volkan Oezdemir. The same man Smith managed to finish when he faced off against the Swiss power puncher.
Prediction: Anthony Smith
Ryan Galloway: The X factor in this fight in my opinion is the fact that it is a three round main event. While we did see Smith get smashed late in his last fight, the initial two rounds he looked like a killer. With that being said Rakic has heavy hands and can put the lights out at any point. I think Smith will probably take this one by decision barring any highlight reel knockout.
Prediction: Anthony Smith
Cole Shelton: I think Anthony Smith will pull off the betting upset with a hard fought decision win. I don’t understand the odds and I think if Smith can get past the first round, it is his fight to win
Prediction: Anthony Smith
Ryan Maccarthy: Rakic is close to being a 3-1 betting favorite and for good reason. Smith didnt look good his last fight and Rakic has been on a role besides his most recent split decision loss. The inconsistency of Smith’s aggression in recent fights concerns me though, and I have Rakic in a close 3 round decision. Rakic at range is most dangerous to Smith. He chops his opponents down with low kicks, manages distance with his long reach and straight punching, and covers distance very well. I expect Rakic to utilize these skills tonight.
Prediction: Aleksandar Rakic
