In an incredibly one-sided showing, Hernandez battered Dolidze on the feet and the floor en route to a fourth-round submission win <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mmamania.com\/ufc-results\/381467\/highlights-anthony-hernandez-strangles-hapless-roman-dolidze-in-middleweight-masterclass-ufc-vegas-109\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">(watch here)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Really, the fight was only competitive for a couple minutes, and Hernandez still won those opening exchanges! Midway through the first, his combination of pace and pressure was getting to Dolidze. Despite all his experience against high level opposition, we\u2019ve never seen Dolidze look so out of place in the Octagon. He was taking shots and getting thrown around for a long while, and the finishing rear naked choke was simply the cherry on top of a great performance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">In addition to the Middleweight main event, UFC Vegas 109 produced a wide range of standout performances and impressive finishes.
