Anthony Hernandez Accuses Gregory Rodrigues of Cheating After UFC Sacramento Loss

Anthony Hernandez has accused Gregory Rodrigues of cheating after their fight at UFC Sacramento, where Hernandez suffered his second consecutive loss.

The event took place this past Saturday, with Hernandez entering the match as the favorite. However, Rodrigues showcased his striking ability, dropping Hernandez twice with leg kicks in the second round, which hindered Hernandez's wrestling attempts. Despite a late effort from Hernandez in the later rounds, he lost by unanimous decision.

In his post-fight comments, Hernandez expressed frustration, claiming he informed referee Herb Dean about rule violations but felt no action was taken. Both fighters received a $100,000 bonus for their performance, as the match was awarded Fight of the Night.
