UFC Vegas 109 Preview Show: Can Anthony Hernandez Muscle His Way Into Title Picture?

Anthony Hernandez just keeps winning, but can’t seem to make much headway in the crowded middleweight contender line. Is there anything he can do in the UFC Vegas 109 main event to change the minds of the matchmakers? Facing off with Hernandez is Roman Dolidze, a hardened veteran seeking to sneak into the title picture himself. Dolidze has never been finished, so if Hernandez is looking for an exclamation point to put on his contender statement, he might have to do something no fighter has done before and put Dolidze away inside the distance. Ahead of this weekend’s UFC Fight Night event, MMA Fighting’s Alexander K. Lee and José Youngs preview the the middleweight headliner between Hernandez and Dolidze, and where they might stand Monday with several stars in their division set to compete in the coming months. Additionally, they discuss Friday’s weight-cut drama, one-time title challenger Steve Erceg looking to avoid a fourth straight loss, the ageless Angela Hill, what fights to look for on the prelims, and much more.
