LAS VEGAS – Anthony Hernandez was a little critical of his performance at UFC Fight Night 210.
Despite scoring a third-round submission of Marc-Andre Barriault (14-6 MMA, 3-5 UFC) this past Saturday at the UFC Apex, Hernandez (10-2 MMA, 4-2 UFC) wanted to end the fight faster. Hernandez’s seven prior career finishes all came before Round 3, hence why he didn’t rate his performance too highly.
“Maybe five? I gotta get better still,” Hernandez told reporters, including MMA Junkie. “I’m gonna keep growing. It took until the third to finish him. I would have liked it sooner, but I’ve been working on being patient, so I’m gonna keep doing that. Go back to the drawing board, listen to my coaches, see what I gotta fix and then we’re gonna work on finishing people in the first and the second.”
