The night of UFC 310 , last Saturday (7), was not good for the most veteran athletes, especially for Chris Weidman , Clay Guida and Anthony Smith , who were defeated in their duels on the preliminary card of the event and, according to Dana White, should say goodbye to professional MMA.
When asked about the future of the veterans in the organization, the UFC president was blunt and stated that the three should retire from MMA.

“They all retire tonight. They should all retire tonight,” Dana said at a post-event press conference.
The current form of the trio in question truly supports Dana White's suggestion. Clay Guida suffered his third consecutive defeat and fourth in five fights after being submitted by Chase Hooper . Chris Weidman , former middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg), suffered his fifth loss in seven fights and has only two wins in the last eight years. Finally, Anthony Smith also suffered his fifth loss in seven appearances and strongly suggested that he will indeed follow the boss's advice.
“It was probably my last fight. It’s been a long road. I want to think about it, but it was probably the last one,” said the Lionheart.
