Our Anthony Hernandez vs Gregory Rodrigues Prediction
This fight will likely be a classic striker versus grappler matchup. Hernandez tends to apply grappling and grappling pressure, which could overwhelm Rodrigues. It’s worth mentioning that the American doesn’t play the same game as Strickland. He likes to move forward and throw bombs, a technique that we’ll likely see him deploy in the early exchanges this weekend. However, Hernandez is the more technical and durable fighter with enough gas tank to complete five rounds. Overall, both are well-rounded fighters, although Hernandez could use his deadly Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu skills to get a submission win in Round 2 or 3.
Our prediction for Anthony Hernandez vs Gregory Rodriguez: Anthony Hernandez to win.
