Runs winning streak to five
Hernandez defeated Roman Kopylov via submission (rear-naked choke) at 3:23 of Round 2 at UFC 298 on Saturday in Anaheim.
ANALYSIS
Everyone is well aware Hernandez's grappling game is lightyears ahead of his striking. Not surprisingly, there were a couple hairy moments on the feet for Anthony at times, but his constant pressure and relentless pursuit of the takedown finally planted Kopylov to the mat and allowed Hernandez to clamp on the rear-naked choke that closed the show. It would also go on to earn him a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus. All told, Hernandez landed just 3-of-11 attempts, but a large part of "Fluffy's" appeal is his elite gas tank. If the first few takedowns don't connect, there will always be more forthcoming. Hernandez feels undersized for middleweight, and he's going to struggle if the takedowns aren't landing, but the elite cardio gives him a high floor. The 30-year-old California native has won five in a row.
