Anthony Hernandez made a statement by tossing Roman Dolidze around like a ragdoll and overwhelming him with complete, all-around control en route to a fourth-round submission victory in the main event of UFC Vegas 109.

After a failed takedown attempt early by Dolidze, the two exchange strikes, with Hernandez landing inside shots, but Dolidze having more power. Hernandez seemed to land a strong right hand on Dolidze, but Dolidze temporarily had him pinned against the fence. Hernandez scored a body lock later in the round and took Dolidze down. Dolize, however, swept and returned to his feet while nearly locking up a leg lock.

Hernandez scored another takedown in the first minute of the third round. Hernandez continued to press him toward the fence and down, despite a pair of fence grabs from Doildze. Hernandez completely bullied Dolize in the round, controlling him at will in grappling and getting the better of him the times they did exchange strikes.

A series of leg kicks and an elbow at the start of round for led to another takedown scored for "Fluffy." Referee Herb Dean finally called a point deduction for a fence grab, but it wouldn't be necessary following another choke (not locked in all the way) that scored "Fluffy" the submission win.
