Smith came into UFC 310 with a heavy heart after recently losing his longtime friend and coach, Scott Morton. “Lionheart” couldn’t hold back his tears during his walkout and took quite a bit of punishment courtesy of Reyes’ ground-and-pound before the referee waved off the fight.

After competing for the first time since Morton’s death, a tearful Smith teased retirement in the Octagon at UFC 310. While he didn’t explicitly say he’s done fighting, he hinted at the steep mountain to climb in attempting to compete again without Morton in his corner.
