Though UFC flyweight Louis Smolka has won four straight fights in the UFC, he feels that he’s constantly being underestimated. Currently ranked at no. 12 in the UFC flyweight rankings, Smolka hopes his next opponent will be ranked in the top ten.

Following his TKO victory over Ben Nguyen at UFC Fight Night 91, UFC flyweight Louis Smolka called for an interim title shot since the division’s titleholder, Demetrious Johnson, is injured. However Wilson Reis, who was expected to challenge for the belt next, accepted a bout against Sean Santella.

A native of Hawaii training out of Hawaii Elite MMA, the 24-year-old looks forward to seeing an event take place on the islands and to one day becoming a UFC champion.
