This is the kind of main event that gets people hyped. Anthony Hernandez is coming off a brutal loss to Sean Strickland back in February, where he got stopped with ground and pound in the third round. Before that? The dude was on an absolute tear, finishing Michel Pereira with nasty elbows in round five and choking out Roman Dolidze in the fourth. Fluffy's a problem when he gets going. Gregory Rodrigues is rolling right now with three straight wins. He just starched Brunno Ferreira in under two minutes back in March, then beat Roman Kopylov by decision last November.

Key Storylines
  • Hernandez looking to rebound after Strickland knockout loss
  • Rodrigues riding three fight win streak with scary power
  • Volume grinder versus explosive first round finisher
Finishing Window

If Rodrigues doesn't get it done early, Hernandez will start pouring it on heavy in rounds three through five.

Before that, he knocked out Jack Hermansson in the first round. The only blemish lately was that main event loss to Jared Cannonier in February 2025, where he got caught in the fourth. Robocop brings serious power and he's not afraid to throw down. Here's what makes this interesting. Hernandez is a grinder who drowns guys with volume and pressure. Against Pereira, he landed 219 strikes and controlled over 15 minutes of that fight. He's relentless.

Rodrigues is the opposite, a first round finisher who's looking to take your head off early. When he knocked out Hermansson and Ferreira, both fights were done in the opening frame. Someone's momentum is about to shift big time in Sacramento. Hernandez needs to bounce back from that Strickland beating. Rodrigues wants to prove he belongs in the rankings conversation. Fans are already calling this a banger.
