Chael Sonnen and Anthony Smith Criticize Tom Aspinall for Not Continuing After Eye Poke

Ex-UFC fighter Sonnen and light-heavyweight Smith argued Aspinall should’ve fought on after the accidental eye poke that ended his UFC 321 bout with Ciryl Gane in a no-contest. “You’re the heavyweight champion; you’ve gotta fight with one eye sometimes,” Sonnen said. Smith added, “I’ve checked out before; I knew he was done.” Both questioned Aspinall’s aggressive response towards the crowd.
