Dolidze: “Hermansson ran and didn’t hurt me much”

Georgian middleweight fighter Roman Dolidze commented in detail on his victory over the Swede Jack Hermansson.

“I don't think the first round was particularly difficult. I agree that Jack most likely won on points, but he ran around me and did not do much damage, only gaining points for the referee's decision. As soon as it came to a serious skirmish, when he came closer, work on the ground, of course, things changed.

In the second round, I already realized that everything would be fine with my cardio, because the weight race went a little hard and the first round I had to watch a bit, try how I would feel. In the second round, I already began to work much more actively, and, most likely, this prompted him to transfer me to the ground again, ”Metaratings quotes Dolidze.

The fight between Dolidze and Hermansson took place on December 4 at the UFC on ESPN 42 fight show in Orlando. The Georgian fighter won by technical knockout.
