American fighter Anthony Hernandez says he has everything he needs to beat reigning UFC middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev.
Anthony Hernandez for ESPN
Congratulations to him. It was a f---ing pretty boring fight – I'm not going to lie. But call me for the (next title) fight. I can wrestle, I can do jiu-jitsu, I can stop all the sh-t, and I can shut him down. With my gas tank, I'll drown him, man – I promise. I'll make him f---ing work.
On August 17, in the main event of UFC 319 in Chicago, Chimaev defeated Dricus Du Plessis by unanimous decision to win the UFC middleweight title. Chimaev now has 15 wins and no losses.
Hernandez last entered the Octagon against Roman Dolidze on August 10 at UFC on ESPN 72. That fight ended in Hernandez’s favor by a choke submission in the fourth round. He has 15 wins, two losses and one no contest on his record.
