6. (NEW) Dolidze vs. Hernandez Payout Odds - UFC Fight Night August 9 (5106 Impressions)
It wasn't one of the bigger headliners in the world of UFC, but just goes to show how prominent a sport this is among Gambling911 readers.
Official Result courtesy of UFC.com: Anthony Hernandez defeats Roman Dolidze by submission (rear naked choke) at 2:45 of Round 4
Anthony Hernandez mugged Roman Dolidze to close out Saturday’s fight card at the UFC APEX, using his constant pressure and menacing pace to torment and finish the Georgian middleweight.
This was “Fluffy” at his absolute best, taking the fight to Dolidze every second, chipping away with small shots until he could land bigger shots and truly punish his opponent. The longer the fight went, the more Hernandez dominated, repeatedly leaving Dolidze in a tired heap on the canvas and calling him back into the fray.
Late in the fourth round, Hernandez opened up with knees as Dolidze was along the fence, with the surging Californian opting to just latch onto his neck and squeeze out a finish as he dragged Dolidze back to his feet. Just a brilliant performance from the emerging middleweight contender, who has now won eight straight as he continues his march towards the top of the division.
