Overview
- Gregory Rodrigues won a unanimous decision over Anthony Hernandez after five rounds at UFC Sacramento on Saturday, handing Hernandez his second straight loss.
- Rodrigues repeatedly attacked Hernandez's lead leg with low kicks that caused multiple knockdowns and opened space for strikes and ground control.
- The main event was named Fight of the Night with Rodrigues and Hernandez each earning $100,000 and the card produced 10 finishes in 13 fights.
- On the same card Reinier de Ridder moved up and stopped Roman Dolidze in the first round and former NFL linebacker Anthony Wint submitted Terrance Chatman in his UFC debut.
- Rodrigues immediately called out former champion Dricus du Plessis and is projected to climb the middleweight rankings while Hernandez's near‑term title path is now in doubt.
