Got to respect Anthony for taking this fight on such short notice
😂
Lol!!!
But how much did he get paid tho?
@@TCthaCrisis his wife will be paying out every night for the rest of his life
bahahahahahahahahaha brilliant
This man said he feels insufficient, but he said he was 100% willing to die for his family. You’re one of the bravest men in the world Anthony Smith. Not a single thing insufficient about your courage, my hats off to you.
Did you realise how courageous he was and decide not to help your mate?
Couldn't agree more with your assessment. I became a fan of his for life the day he decided not to win against Jones due to an illegal strike. Men don't get better than this.
Stfu luke wilson
I’m rooting for this guy from now on.
@@tahliah2608 😂😂😂
Thank God he didn’t break into Stipe’s house... cause we wouldn’t be able to understand a single word when he retells the story.
dfkm
Hahahha
👍🏼😁
Bahahah
Savage 🤣🤣
Almost brought me to tears hearing him speak so proudly of his daughters and wife he's a very honest and truthful man. Complete legend
Demon Senpai you sound like a poosy
@@gary5165 Shut up man
Imagine trying to rob a house and Francis Ngannou comes around the corner in a bathrobe
Zach Favreau and what he has underneath is enough to scare the guy off 😂
Sir i know its dark but do you have three legs or are you holding a bat.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ya then he gets shot in his chest
Francis is a nice guy too. He’d probably let him sleep it off on his street after he flew out his window from the straight right lol
Anthony Smith : the kid took every single punch elbow and kick I gave him
Dana : did you get the kids number ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
John Tiswell lol
“thats the fight to make. Kid vs anthony smith ufc 250, i want this interview in the promos” - Dana
great pre-fight-beef will make the fight exciting : P
"Better me than anybody else on the street" this guy is such a nice guy and badass st the same time. He's Called Lionheart for a reason
“Where you at Luke!!?”- Tony Ferguson
Tony Ferguson would've kept him in his house as a pet for a couple of years.
Fine kabbaj lmao you win!
U win
Fine kabbaj 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is why I love these types of comments hahahaha
If he didn't trip over the extension cord!
Home invader: *screaming at the top of his lungs*
Tony Ferguson: Hold on, Im talking brother
😂
Lol
Bas Rutten - “you talk to my wife like that?! Dang da dang da dang...bounce his head off table” lol
If you haven’t seen that gold video...search Bas Rutten bar fighting.
@@Anonymous8317 sounds like this kid Anthony Smith ) should watch it😅
"cuando estoy hablando" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
BTW the accused who broke into Anthony Smiths house, his name is Luke Haberman so when he called for Luke, he was essentially calling himself XD
sounds like he had mental health issues-plus drugs
Bath salts
Lmao that’s called a concussion
He was possessed by a demon. Taking bath salts empties your mind leaving it open for a demon to take control over it.
Pretty creepy, probably multi personality disorder, he thinks he's someone else and luke is just someone he knows but he doesn't know it's actually him.
Anthony Smith: "Don't kick my wife!"
Crackhead Nut: "Okay I won't."
My man has more sportsmanship than Jon Jones.
I heard Dave Chapelle crack head voice right there
where does he say this in the interview?
@@backyardbirderhd4562 20:20
Dana: “Even though he lost the fight the guy is super tough, he showed a lot of heart, and that’s why I’m giving him a UFC Contract.”
dbzwwe56 no worse than Greg Hardy
And Dana has come to an agreement he will be paid in bath salts and meth.
😂😂😂
Lmao
dbzwwe56 he would have the 155 mark hunt chin
"Home intruders? You mean involuntary sparring partners." - Tony Ferguson
Benjamin Maddox i swear mma fan comments are the best
Haha this needs to be at the top!
Good one lmao
The term "intruder" is offensive. The democrats would refer to this individual as an "undocumented guest". Glad Anthony and his family are OK
Underrated commemt
Let me tell you something. This man right here is so impressive. He’s humble, articulate, kind, level headed. He’s going to be a incredible champion one day. This is a face that should represent UFC. Not Jon. Anthony God Bless you and your family.
Did you know Smith could have taken the belt from Jon when they fought? He was struck illegally and could’ve chosen to not continue and been awarded the W in a title fight thus becoming champion. Lion heart knew that’s not how he should get the belt so he continued, lost. And hasn’t fought for the belt since
@@CGSocDem yeah, he’s truly a class act. Always honest, humble, hardworking and talented.
You gotta beat the champ to be the champ. I don't see him ever being champ on this roster.
Dude's a legend in the fight game.
Lionhearted he is!! Kudos brother!!!
For this guy to do this interview and be as honest as he was is pretty legit. “If I get shot in the chest or stabbed I got 2 minutes to end this” and “I’m going to have to sink a knife into this dude so I can handle the other one”... This dude is working with some clarity.
"Better me than anyone else on the street" - the guy's called lionheart for a reason
Well if he fought him the same way he fought against Jon Jones then the guy is probably fine
@@nbanba7531 Jon Jones is the baddest man on the planet you wouldn't last 2 seconds with lionheart tough guy
Jon Jones is overrated now if you ask me
@@nbanba7531 Nah man for what he has done he deserves all the praises and criticism. However, I do think he lost to reyes.
Yah he’s one of the best.. but he doesn’t finish people anymore like when he was young and barley wins decisions.. and yah he basically lost to santos too who tore his acl, mcl, and meniscus.. Jones will lose soon and most people will think llike me right now
"The room was covered with blood"
Anthony smith with no scratch in his face..
I want to see that guy face
Dustin diamond Poirier right? Where’s this dudes mugshot?
First thing I thought when he said he wasn't ready for it.
I’ve been telling people who say ufc should sign the intruder....I’m telling them anthony just didn’t want to kill him, prob beat him down for those 5 min...he’s not playing the innocent cause he is but he’s for sure covering himself
Dude must have been outta his head with meth or crack. Dude must have severe brain damage right now. He will never be the same after the beating he took.
Dustin diamond Poirier yeah can someone find it
When he said “you’re terrified when you see him. But, you know there’s no choice. It’s all on me…” Man, that really stuck with me. Kudos to him for protecting his family. He did what any husband and any father would do, UFC fighter or not.
I'm pretty sure he's traumatized from this after seeing him fight Johnny Walker last weekend.
@@biglollol theres a recent video of him being startled by the mail slot in his air bnb, he definitely has PTSD. I got nothing but respect for him, he's a true family man and protector.
@@blitheringrando1410it's kinda weird that someone like him would be traumatised by this though
I mean he's trained to take a beating from other pro fighters, why would he be scared of some random?
@@Lee-ic2yn its the idea that someone could just be in your house while you're sleeping and now you have to defend yourself with no preparation.
The fear he felt in that moment not knowing if he'd be shot or stabbed or even if his kids were ok, that lasts with you. You never forget a moment where you feel vulnerable and have to fight for your life. Fighting an intruder would use adrenaline you couldnt pull in an MMA match with a ref and rules.
@@Lee-ic2ynthat’s a very naive response
Anthony seems like a good man, glad no one in his family got hurt.
Imagine breaking into Masvidals house and he’s just standing in the kitchen with he’s hands behind he’s back smiling
O Loading he says he cooks naked, so if he’s in the kitchen…
O Loading .. that would be more scary than breaking into a house and seeing Hannibal Lecter
With a three piece and soda on the counter
Imagine if you knew how to spell
@@hcole3201 watch out for that flying dong then 😂
Tony's the type of guy to break in to Anthony Smith's house and start screaming in the middle of the night to get some sparring sessions in.
Ha ha 👌👌👌👌👀
i mean tony did say he’s finally starting to spar now
Weres your kid
Luuuuuuuke 😂
This one is good dude nice job 👍🏼
If he would have broken in the house of eddy alvarez, his wife would have woken up the whole city.
Tbag the notorious 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
EDDDIIIEEEEE
I'm 11 months late but this comment literally had me dying for 5 minutes
@@noxzy69 nice
So you tell me that with the UFC and Bellator on hiatus, there was a 6 minutes fight of this caliber and there is no footage!? Cmon!!!
This proves my theory we need a methhead division.
Rj Kogan lmaooooo!!
😂😂😂😂 good one
Rj Kogan 😂😂
Rj Kogan nate the goat in that division
Happened in ww2
Imagine taking a 5 minute beating from a scared to death Anthony Smith
yeah he had brain swolling lol pretty busted up. 5 mins of ground and pound. for sure was on some crazy drug to be able to take all that damage.
3MatthewR yeah man he’s lucky he didn’t get killed Hopefully he learned his lesson
@@lordatlas He might be too braindead now to learn anything lmao
3MatthewR : Most likely PCP. People on PCP have been known to continue acting aggressively even after being shot or stabbed. The signal from the brain that tells your body it has been injured is suppressed on PCP
No... No I can't imagine
I can’t even imagine how ice cold Smith’s blood must’ve went when he heard him say “I’m not alone”
If he wasn't alone he would've said he was
Anthony: How’d you get into my house?
Intruder: The garage door was wide open
Yep, soft target. Luckily Anthony is a trained fighter.
Sketch_Sesh 😂
Imagine breaking into someone’s house and having them be an elite light heavyweight fighter in the UFC.
Gotta be karma
Imagine being 160 pounds and taking every shot from said elite light heavyweight and continuing to come forward while overpowering him on the floor
One of the baddest dudes on earth! Im guessing top 25 on earth and you break into his house??!! Lol
Hahahaha, yeah that sucks
RealDarkFilm yeah n that’s why his blood was all over the room 😂 drugs do crazy things
"He's not a big guy 165, 170 pounds but super strong."
Tony Ferguson confirmed.
@The Rock WHERE'S YOUR KID AT ?
Hahaha 👏🤣
That sounds like Tony....... ahahahahahah!!
@Left on third base holding a catcher's mitt Lol, he literally weighs 163 rn
@The Rock 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣hahahahahaha like in the tuf
He can tell the story perfectly get this man on JRE right this second
Garage doors wide open*
Intruder: “it’s free real estate”
Imagine breaking into a house and all the sudden you're fighting Anthony Smith, thats rough
Very rough
YT-PaC_ChopCity19 😂
Seems like the guy almost beat him like Jon Jones lol all jokes btw chill out
YT-PaC_ChopCity19 HAHAHA🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not an easy night out at all
"There's blood all over the walls, it's just a mess", but Anthony Smith doesn't have a scratch on him...... That guy must have felt it the next day.
Exctly what I was thinking. Dude entered the wrong house
@Tai Lopez the beatdown he took from Anthony caused internal bleeding. Remember it was a UFC fighter with 230 lbs vs some dude
Conner Yea thats freaking sad. You had the self reflection to pause and realize it’s unfortunate really. So props for that brother.
Dude prob came outta there like joanna
Devon I was just gonna say 🤣😂
"My mother in law is such a gangster!"
Dana: where gonna see how this whole thing plays out
😂
we're, you idiot
Orue Mulgrew Good work bro. Doing God’s work
Orue Mulgrew Grammar nazi
Regardless of who Anthony fights for the rest of his career, I will always be cheering for him after watching this video. I have all the respect in the world for this man.
Ryan S i was just thinking same exact thing
I rooted for Jon Jones against Smith. I will never root against this guy again. Same as you-- I couldn't respect any person more than Anthony Smith right now.
@@kickholder12 Anthony should envision his next opponent as an intruder and unleash the beast/lion!
Jon jones mauled him
@@kickholder12 I rooted for smith but to be fair I always root against jon
How much of a badass is his wife? She stood there in the hallway so “Luke” or any other intruders would have to go through her first - straight badass move. Two great and protective parents.
I mean, what do expect her to do? She's the 2nd line of defense.
JR The 2nd plenty of people would cower in fear or just hide. She did it in the name of defending her kids. Her character was shown. Gangster move.
@@rickytpb2164 I don't know a parent that wouldn't defend their child's life. I'm not bashing the woman, but at the same time, what she did was common place, and expected. She's a mother...her first and most important job on this earth is to protect those children.
@@rickytpb2164 Most parents would defend their children, i don't think we should underestimate the average person. Plenty of people are down to throw down if there life is in danger or their family/friend
I saw his wife once on UFC Embedded. She must be like 6'3 or 6'4 since she was just about as tall as Lionheart and didn't have a frail build or anything. So she certainly isn't a defenseless little woman
That truly is terrifying, thank God he’s a trained fighter and was able to protect his family, and brave of his wife to block the hallway not knowing if another person would be coming.
*Drugged out intruder screams
Anthony "Big Smoke" Smith
*"YOU PICKED THE WRONG HOUSE FOO!"*
Different outcome in that situation if intruders name is NOT CJ tho.
He officially has fought two people on drugs. Jones and this random joe.
Classic.
kin ahahahahahahaha
LOL!
Quite apt.😂😂😂
Ouch
Around 165-170 pounds hmm.. sounds like Tony Ferguson just wanted some sparring
W
Tony the type of guy to break into a LH WEIGHTS house to condition his adrenaline response.
Cameron Yamaguchi Jesus Christ man it’s a joke. Also he’s a week away from a fight he may be more in that range. But for sure lighten up lol
Hahahaha, comment of the day!
HAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHA
I’m dying over the Ferguson stuff I’m reading 🤣🤣😂😂
I can't believe 3 years later Smith came clean and properly accused Johnny Walker of his crimes for all the public to see, dude's really brave for coming forward like that!
😭😭😭
Maybe if Anthony remembered to lock the garage door that night, the next family the intruder moved on to could've suffered a loss. Life's strange like that. Glad his family is okay.
Saint Wow. Your comment really blew my mind
You know, I’ve been struggling in changing my mindset and outlook on things, trying to be more positive and pensive, but I clearly am not at your level. Respect.
Agreed but I also feel that Anthony should had never given his intruder the opportunity to be someone else's intruder at a later date. Get a gun and shoot to stay alive. Make certain your intruder is never able to be anyone else's intruder. Who know his next house may be someone that really matters to you.
@@paulbenoit6076 Unfortunately, "He went into my garage so I killed him" Isn't the best legal defence. Depends on your state
Everything happens for a reason etc but yeah that's crazy
Lion heart: I threw my best and couldn’t knock him out
Bath salts: ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?!?!
OMG..Killin me.
Nice one
I am surprised Anthony didn't attempt to just choke the dude out.. Maybe Lionheart was worried he would try too hard and kill the kid.
@@smac919 If someone is one meth he could die from a simple choke.
(ง'̀-'́)ง🛁🧂
This story brought tears to my eyes. Amazing to see how willing this man was to lay his life on the line for his family, an inspiration
Seriously what a candid interview incredible bravery and his wife as well. The terror you must feel waking up to a shadowy figure in your home. Got a lot of respect for Anthony, this should be a wake up call to people who take security for granted
Anthony Smith is one of the realest dudes alive
😂😂
chris boyo what’s so funny
Spartacus Savona who knows. he gets beat by his dad
Yeah I'm glad he's telling the reality of it and not bullshitting
Spartacus Savona i dont remember. I was prolly reading another comment bout tony ferguson and luke thomas that had me rollin and entered in wrong area. It was like 4am 🤪
"I am by no means the baddest man on the planet...," said the 5-6th baddest man on the planet.
Everything he said in this interview is so humble
See You Soon well no because if I a 125 pounder is number 1 p4p, Anthony is still gonna be able to beat him 🤣🤣🤣
@smelly_meat boss or more of them than you, or have weapons.
@@barrackhussein464 not neccessary... usually separate questions p4p is if everyone is the same size who would be best. Baddest man on the planet is generally a heavyweight ko king.
P4P: Ray Robinson
Baddest man on the planet: Mike Tyson
See You Soon P4P isn’t the real baddest fighters, a realistic mixture of heavyweight and light heavyweight ranked guys are. Jon, DC, Stipe, Francis, Reyes, Blaydes, Marreta, Lionheart (not sure about the last two for MMA honestly). There are probably guys in the world we don’t know about who can bang like that too and I can imagine some guys like Wilder or Joshua being just as dangerous or more to break into. Tons of really good wrestlers (Kyle Snyder, Taha Akgul etc) would be a home intruders worst nightmare also so they’re definitely badder in this scenario than the vast majority of UFC heavies and light heavies. But the idea that a Mighty Mouse is one of the baddest men on the planet is just absurd. Any decent heavyweight at an MMA gym would ragdoll him, his skill is insane and his ability in the sport of MMA almost unparalleled but let’s not pretend here.
This is the kind of guy everybody needs in their life, positive humble guy
Anthony lived thru a family man’s nightmare- heroic actions. Very scary scary situation... God willing all are recovering well
Intruder: LUKE! LUKE!
Luke Rockhold: *knocked out from turning his head too fast*
💀
LMFAOO
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
ironic the intruders name was luke
Mike Perry sits up every night just waiting for someone to break in
so does Joanna!
@@73kimura lameeeee
69th like
Lol
So he can take em to the beach
After I did some reading, I found out that the intruder, Luke Haberman, is a standout college wrestler. So not only is he a great athlete, he’s also trained his whole life to not let someone put his back to the mat. He can probably go 5 minutes and never stop while sober. He was also likely on drugs and as Anthony said, probably believed he was fighting for his life as well. It’s not surprising to me that this was one of the toughest fights Anthony’s ever had. What are the odds that this home intruder happens to be a stud wrestler, who happens to break into a UFC contender’s house?
Absolutely right. He's not going to have the normal mental limitations or inhibitions to stop him absolutely pushing himself 5 times beyond what he might normally do if he's out of his mind on drugs and going mental in a psychopathic rage. And his normal highest point of exertion got him to a record breaking status at the collegiate level. And we know what anger and adrenaline can help a person do let alone in addition to drugs and/or going crazy to the point where he's screaming and roaring his head off repeatedly. Plus that means he's going to be all the more unpredictable with his movements and choices of what to do, if he begins swinging wildly at you, trying to take you down, bite you, anything.
Anthony, I'm sorry you went through this experience. I could never imagine having a life or death altercation in my home, but it does happen and its very difficult for people to prepare for the reality of a situation like this. Stay strong and continue sharing your story, I believe it is helpful for those who have encountered similar situations as events of this nature can cause PTSD and other anxiety/depressive symptoms for years to come. Thank you for speaking about this in an open forum.
Imagine breaking into someone’s house and that someone is a 6’4” UFC beast 😂, props to Anthony for his bravery, Lionheart.
Obviously that dude didn't care what size Anthony was and seems like he put up a tough fight.
@@alloverdaplace2043 it doesn't really sound like he put up a good fight. Blood all over the place, brain swelling, Anthony looks untouched. I think Anthony was just surprised by his strength and durability.
Kia y’all about bad luck lol
Joshua Morales well this entire thing was back luck
@Hamza Umar yeah I had already saw that. Though I find it more likely that it was mainly tard strength.
Tony's the type of guy to brake into Anthony Smiths house , just to see how good the light heavyweight division really is !!!
😂😂😂
Richard Bannon 💀💀💀💀💀💀
lmao very nice
Bruhhh
LMAO😂😆😁
31:35 "I didn't come this far to ONLY come this far" my favorite quote I've ever heard
Somebody give this kid a ufc contract
All things aside let’s be glad he went into a High level Mma fighters home
He lucky too. I'd imagine a lot of people are armed in Nebraska
And we probably have the Covid virus to thank for the fact that Anthony was home and not off training somewhere.
Chapelle wasn’t joking when he talked about “crackhead power”.
32 gigs that’s why Jones can’t get knocked out
Bro, I'm not a cop but work along side them alot. Watched a dude get tased atleast 6 times and it barely did anything. Crackhead power is legit.
I once seen a crackhead get hit so hard by a car , that his leg fell off .. he than proceeded to pick his leg up and hop off the street and waited for the ambulance on one leg ... crack is the super solider drug
Anthony Smith has the best personality in the game.
Bryan Benz 😂😂😂😂
My heart goes out to the kids , this can really affect them! Big love and massive respect to the Smith family. God bless
Big respect to you Anthony, nobody likes to admit that they felt powerless in a situation like that. Im glad you were home to deal with the situation like a lion. I hope a speedy mental recovery to your badass wife and step mum, and also your kids man 👊
“It’s like the most terrifying moment of your life...”
Ariel: “hmm...so then what happened?”
Then he mutes his own mic to laugh while off screen
yeah wait i just started to listen, is he going to say how he smashed this guy, dame it i want details, how big was that idiot
give that dude a ufc contract, fark me.. what lunatic
I can't believe you Ariel.
@@rockade2408 He would fail every USADA test though lol
All of this during a covid lockdown, that's as close as it gets to zombies
just shows you! how stupid can someone BE!! breaking into a house when everyone is sitting at home on lock down paranoid and waiting.... in texas this would be a horrible idea at this moment point and time only a complete retard would do this asking to get shot .
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exactly..
@@nathanw5747 Well this is what he said the man was acting weird , he went to different people cars didn't stole anything
He was off pcp or meth
Always had mad respect for this dude, but now it’s through the roof what a humble genuine guy.!!
Imagine breaking into Tony Ferguson's house and he gives you his gun so it's a fair fight
bro I'm dying. Best one yet
"Better me than anybody else on the street, that's for sure", he is almost relived that it was him that had to deal with this guy. God bless this man! That's a man's man right here ladies and gentlemen. Hope this terrifying event is something him and his family are going to be able to get through. Those poor babies had to be so scared.
Break into my house and i promise your gonna end up in a bag!! Defend my family by any means!!!
Tyler L that’s why we love our 2nd amendment
@Veris Really did he not scream and attack in the beginning? Or did Anthony just blast through him? Now that I think about it I believe Anthony blasted through him to start of the physical portion of this altercation.
if that thief would've brokje in Khabib house...it would have been eaten for dinner with Cocacola
He started shouting "LUKE" but Rockhold was already knocked out at that point
😂
Christos316 Anthony smiths wife slapped him on the chin
@@loganwolf1188 he probably said something cringy to her
He got knocked out by the breeze when he jumped out of the car that night.
Christos316 YES
Hearing Smith talks and having kids myself, this gives me the chills like crazy!
The story sounds too familiar, this happened to me and my family 5/5/2011, but ended much worse. Hearing your story made my heart drop. It helped for us to go to counseling and talk to a family this had happened to years before. Talking about it helped me tremendously, but for my husband who shot and killed the intruder, he has hesitancy speaking of this night even though it's been 9 years.
Tell your husband, a random guy on RUclips, salutes him for doing what he had to do to protect his people.. that's what men do. Unfortunately the burden of doing so is a heavy one
Salute to your husband for doing what he had to do to protect his family. I can’t even imagine how hard it must be for him to think about such a traumatic experience. Glad everyone is ok tho
Tell him he should have no shame doing what needed to be done ✅
Bless his heart, it’s never easy to take a life, as responsible gun owners the last thing we’d ever want to do is take a life, But sometimes some things must be done as it was either your and your husbands life, kids, future, or the criminals, Who usually have 0 regard for human life. Your husband does though. I will be praying for you and your family 💜✝️ Your husband did the best thing possible.
This doesn’t matter at all. What state and city was it in.
Jones: gets arrested doing something very dangerous and illegal
Smith: stays home as instructed for quarantine and saved his family from a intruder
very dangerous and illegal ???? Jones did nothing dangerous.
Well if you think about it Anthony could be champ when Jon Kneed him when he was down but he didn’t take the easy way out so he’s a champ I my eyes also he destroyed Gus
@@carlosmartel4646 Idiot, he was driving drunk and high...
@Islam is right about women Fight me Are you an idiot or just uninformed? No gunshot was traced to him and he wasn't driving he was sat in a parked car after 4 beers 😂 Twice the legal limit is 4 beers lol get a grip you melt
@@thebatman4392 Couldn't agree more he is a true champion in spirit. He couldve easily taken that W.
This guy is a gem. This is such a truthful and honest interview. He shows a lot of vulnerability here, but definitely not a sissy. This is a truly terrifying moment and he did not sugar coat any of the details. He handled it all like a legend.
I agree with you I think it was a very honest interview and he didn't try to sugarcoat anything for sure.
Lot of people on here second-guessing him and what he should or should not done.
We were not there and I'm looking at it going "this is a certified badass UFC fighter who was defending his wife & kids" if you could have ended it by choke or knock out or whatever he definitely would have.
Also I think that intruder probably was whacked out on PCP that's what it sounds like to me.
True!!!
Anthony could have legally killed him and still chose not to.
Nobody could’ve told the story like him.
Yes!
Incredible self control in the most terrifying moment of his life, literally decided not to kill him and put the knife down.
Especially when he thought there was another bad guy in the house. He could have finished the kid and gone to look for his imaginary friend and nobody would have blamed Smith. The kid is extremely lucky Smith is such a stand up guy
Glad your ok. Hope the family recovers and gets past this asap
Amazing how this man is one of the world's most elite trained fighters but still is honest enough to say that he froze when there was a smaller man unexpectedly in his home. I think that's so admirable
Because the fool could be armed
Because when they break in to burglarize they usually have something for safety just in case
The guy who broke in his house was no average joe. He was big time Nebraska state wrestler, which explained why he was so tough
N V agreed
Real life isnt safe like a cage fight.
intruder: LUKE!
Rockhold: Sorry bro the front door KO'd me
😂😂
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
This is what I came to the comments for 🤣
Hahahaha
Oh that was savage dude
What a family tho! This guy is a dude! His wife, his mother in law, his daughters... the way they responded... what a family
Anthony Smith. Your the man, really. Not for just fighting for your family but for the emotional feelings you have to deal with.
Tony Ferguson the type of dude to tell the home intruder to go to his room
The Kids Nice 😂😂😂
Tony Ferguson the type of...wait was it Tony that broke in?
hahahha
This burglar was lucky he didn’t break into Artem Lobov’s home.
why? artem went into full coward mode when khabib confronted him. Intruders (who most likely have weapons and are unknown in number) is a lot scarier than even khabib.
One look at lobovs wingspan and he would have been out of there like a flash
@@dfpguitar u stupid artem is more dangerous than weapons
dfpguitar because when 1 of us goes to war we all go to war.
Chu chu
Praying for you and your family man. I’m sorry you guys had to go through all that. That situation would be so terrifying I couldn’t imagine stay strong man god bless!!!
My respect for Anthony Smith just went off the charts; not for his physical abilities, but for his humility and objective attitude toward this entire situation. And what a great insight into what REALLY happens when you're in this type of situation. Tough guys talk a big game about what THEY would do, but you'll never know until you're the one fighting for your life.
100%
Jones would have put the guy in a crusifix and eye poke him to death
😂
Bro that man would look like swiss cheese at Jon's house, dude is armed like rambo... for good reason as we see
Hahahha
Jones would've been the guy breaking in.
Both are on ped‘s so it’s a fair fight
This dude submitted Alexander Gustafsson and went 5 rounds with Jon Jones said this was the hardest fight. Jesus.
The hardest part was not killing the man
exactly why not just choke him out,dudes only 165-170 against probably 220-230 and a trained fighter
@@rickmathews6044 205 pounds*
205 is on weigh in day,probably around 220-230 at least every other day
Trained with technique and discipline against other fighters. The panic of the life and death scenario, Anthony wasn’t thinking clearly. Didn’t think to choke him
This dude is a good dude. With a good family. I'm glad you and your family are safe man.
I love that his wife immediately blocks the hallway. Straight away there to do her job as a wife and mum.
"Sucks for me, but better me than anyone else on the street, that's for sure" What a stud! Always been a fan of Lionheart. I'm glad you and your fam are ok!
*both stare at eachother awkwardly for 10 seconds* Tony whips a bottle of holy water at the guys face
could you tell me what a "stud" is please i have heared it several times but i never knew what it actually means ? Enlish is not my native language...
I scrolled down and read this right as he said it and this is like the 3rd comment for me
Dana's trying to figure out when this guy gets out of jail so he can set up a rematch.
dsrecs I would pay to view this!
🤣
"that's the fight to make that's the fight that make sense, it's a massive fight"
@@RyanKelvinRea i would like to see the face of the dude in question
That's Dana for sureבניה בטיטו
When seconds count, police are minutes away....

This supposed to be a knock on police?
@@evanmonast5522 No, from the contexts I've read this saying in, it's a comment on being armed instead of relying on the response time of law enforcement. We know from this, of course, that Anthony Smith had a gun nearby but forgot to have it ready at his bedside as usual.
Evan Monast No it’s a knock on reality. It’s a knock on your expectations that the police are there to save your life, and always respond right away.
Best comment of all!
Glad you and you family all came through this Anthony, that’s all that matters, things can be replaced. Happy for you brother
BTW pal get yourself a German shepard or a Doberman etc. Knowones coming in your house thrn
Anthony Smith : "he took every shot, every elbow and every knee i hit him with and he kept on going" Dana white: " lets sign this dude"
Lol!
The UFC tests for PCP, I believe.
Lmao the criminal vs CM Punk
@@blakeb9964 hahahahahahahahaha
Usada: only a picogram of bath salts he's good to go
Unbeliavable how Anthony went straight at the man expecting him to have a gun/knife, giving himself 2 minutes to destroy this other man before he would himself perish from knife stabs/getting shot in order to preotect his wife and kids!!! What a man!🙌
I applaud him for showing so much restraint when he was given a knife. Plenty of people would have had to kill the kid to stop him. Anthony saved his family and the life of that foolish PCP zombie. Then he still did his next scheduled fight. A true badass.
It's not really unbelievable
That's what I'd expect just a normal dad to do never mind a professional fighter, if I had his skills I wouldn't be scared of ANYONE
Why didnt he just choke him out??
@@hunterbidensvaxmandates because the kid kept trying to reach into his pockets. Once you go for the choke, their arms are free to grab for weapons until they go out. Anthony mentioned that in one of his interviews about it
So much respect for Anthony 🙏
Intruder: *screaming*
Tony: Hold on I'm talking brother.
Intruder: *continues screaming*
Tony: Shut up before I ankle pick you.
Tony to the intruder : Aye Aye have fun fighting my undercard.
Intruder: **Is being removed from Tony Ferguson's house on a stretcher**
Tony Ferguson: "Ay have fun fighting my undercard buddy"
🤣
One of the most legendary mma moments
Tony would break into the intruder’s house next day and start screaming
"I didnt come this far to only come this far" love that quote
Reminds me of what that Oregon high school football coach said after he disarmed a school shooter a year or two ago when the interviewer said “you could’ve died”
“Yeah. It wasn’t my time though.”
@@SliceofBread123 oye I remember that,he said the kid was only gonna kill himself not kid's but who knows!! But either way what a great man to hug him cos of the threat he stays calm and cool and cares which is crazy reaction, respect to him
boxing mma365 Yeah but he didn’t know that at the time, he just saw a kid with a shotgun going into a class and given how that normally plays out...
@@SliceofBread123 I thought he said it, my mistake I'll take you're word on it👍did the wannabe shooter go to trial yet??
ApeHead what part of Oregon I went to centennial in Portland/Gresham area
Much love and respect to him and is family!! To hear how the oldest daughter taking care of her younger siblings!!! 🙏
I feel for you Anthony. I have an eight year old daughter. I can only imagine the terror you must have felt. As a gun owner myself, I am conflicted about what happened. Happy you don't have to deal with the aftermath of a self defense shooting, but taking your heartache as an opportunity to learn from this experience. And for that, I am sorry for what you and your family have gone through, but thank you for sharing this awful experience. Sharing your experience may end up saving someone's life.
Katt Williams said it best, “I don’t care how good you are at fighting, you can never beat a crackhead.”
Did sound like being a light heavyweight ufc title contender is just enough to beat a crackhead though lol
Katt Williams is a crackhead and got beat up by a 15 year old
Plus this robber was a wrestling champion so there is that.
@@nothinbutpeanut Was he? Says who?
@@theanarchy4003 yes he was. He holds a top 5 spot in nearly every single wrestling record in the state of Nebraska...thats if he doesnt hold the record
