Hernandez Reignites Passion with Strickland Camp Ahead of UFC Sacramento Headliner

Anthony Hernandez says training with Sean Strickland and the Xtreme Couture crew, plus time at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas, rekindled his love for fighting as he prepares for UFC Sacramento’s main event against Gregory Rodrigues. After a loss to Strickland at UFC Houston earlier this year, Hernandez left Sacramento to train in Las Vegas, focusing on sharpening his game and avoiding past mistakes. He enters the fight riding a hot stretch, 8-1 in his last nine, with multiple stoppages, while Rodrigues seeks his first UFC main-event win and has gone 3-0 since their last meeting. Hernandez emphasizes focus on Rodrigues and his family support as he chases a title-shot finale.
