Anthony Hernandez is putting ego aside as he attempts to get back on track in the UFC Fight Night 285 main event.
Hernandez (15-3 MMA, 9-3 UFC) had his seven-fight winning streak snapped in February when he suffered a TKO loss to Sean Strickland (31-7 MMA, 18-7 UFC) in a middleweight title eliminator.

Strickland went on to claim UFC gold from Khamzat Chimaev in his next fight, while Hernandez looks to rebound when he takes on Gregory Rodrigues (19-6 MMA, 10-3 UFC) in the Aug. 22 headliner at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, Calif. (Paramount+)
Hernandez has been in some training with Strickland in advance of the fight, noting he got some “tips and tricks” from the current 185-pound king that he hopes will put him back on the right path (via Instagram):
