Set to face Reyes in UFC 310
Smith is set to face Dominick Reyes in a light heavyweight bout at UFC 310 on Dec. 7, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith lost to Roman Dolidze via unanimous decision (27-30, 28-29, 27-30) at UFC 303 on June 29, and the veteran has been struggling of late with a 2-4 record over his last six fights. The 36-year-old is certainly making his final steps in an octagon and will hope to turn things around here.

Struggles against Roman Dolidze
Smith lost to Roman Dolidze via unanimous decision (27-30, 28-29, 27-30) at UFC 303 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
When you get a fight between two guys that are friendly with each other on extremely short notice, this is the type of bout you are left with. Smith appeared aging and tired throughout the course of the fight. He had competed fought less than two months ago and was likely looking forward to an extended break. Instead, he got Dolidze here and accomplished next to nothing offensively over the course of 15 minutes. On a more positive note, Smith didn't absorb a ton of damage outside of a Round 2 slip which allowed Dolidze to end up in a dominant position on the mat. Smith, who will be 36 years of age in late-July, is closing in on 60 professional fights. He's 2-4 in his past half-dozen bouts and is clearly running out of time.
