Hernandez is a durable, high-paced grappler who relies heavily on relentless pressure, prolonged ground fighting, and exhausting submission attempts. The American submitted Roman Kopylov with a choke, finished Michel Pereira by TKO, defeated Brendan Allen by decision and Roman Dolidze by submission, but in his most recent octagon appearance lost to Sean Strickland by TKO.

The 34-year-old Gregory Rodrigues enters the bout with a professional record of 19 wins and 6 losses.

Thanks to his inexhaustible cardio and relentless pressure on the mat, Anthony will wear down his opponent and secure the victory.
