==Survivor==
Anthony was on the disadvantaged Ravu tribe, and although he made some friendships, particularly with Earl Cole, repeated challenge losses and a few bad performances on Anthony's part began to make him a target. Mookie Lee and Rocky Reid were particularly critical of him, the former slating his performance at the Fijian feast Immunity Challenge at the Day 8 Tribal Council and the latter antagonizing him throughout camp life. Anthony narrowly survived that Tribal Council by voting out Sylvia Kwan, though he was the secondary split vote target in case she found the Hidden Immunity Idol at . After a heated conversation, though Rocky did most of the speaking, Anthony broke down in confessional, but vowed not to give up. Fortunately for Anthony, Rita Verreos began to annoy Rocky even more than he did, making Rita the next to go on Day 14 in a 5-2 vote.
In a Schoolyard Pick style tribe switch, Anthony by default joined Ravu, which remained the inferior camp but on paper had the stronger tribe, consisting of Dreamz Herd, Edgardo Rivera, Alex Angarita, Rocky, Mookie, and himself. However, he was the clear weak link and was designated the fire starter while the rest of the tribe went to get food. After losing yet another Immunity Challenge on Day 16, Rocky openly targeted Anthony, forcing Anthony to return the favor. Though the original Moto members liked Anthony, they decided to keep the stronger Rocky and unanimously voted Anthony out that night 6-1, though not before Anthony finally stood up for himself and slated Rocky for his attitude.
