An adult Smilodon wouldn't have had any predators. It would have had some competition, though, from flat faced bears and American lions. The cubs, though, were vulnerable to attack by a wide range of animals.
Once humans arrived in the Americas, they may have hunted Smilodon for its pelt and for sport.
