UFC Fight Night returns to the UFC APEX in Las Vegas this Saturday, and the headline matchup will see Roman Dolidze taking on Anthony Hernandez in the middleweight division. The Caucasian has a pro record of 15-3-0, while Fluffy is 14-2-0, 1NC. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Roman Dolidze is set to step back inside the Octagon after outlasting Marvin Vettori to claim a unanimous decision victory at UFC Fight Night back on March 15.
The Caucasian is now riding a three-match win streak, and five of his nine wins in the UFC have come by way of KO/TKO. He has never been knocked out in his pro career.
The Georgian lands 3.58 significant strikes per minute at a rate of 42%. He absorbs 3.56 and has a takedown defence of 33%, which will be crucial in this matchup.
Meanwhile, Anthony Hernandez enters this bout in great shape, now on a seven-match win streak that dates back to his submission victory over Rodolfo Vieira in February 2021.
Fluffy notched up a unanimous decision win over Brendan Allen in his first main event earlier this year, which took him into the top 10 in the division, right behind his upcoming opponent.
In terms of the tale of the tape, Hernandez is six years younger and has a massive advantage in the TD average at 6.27 compared to his opponents’ 1.11.
