It looks like rising middleweight Anthony Hernandez has his next fight, as it’s being reported he will battle fellow contender, Roman Dolidze.

Hernandez (14-2) is coming off a unanimous decision win over Brendan Allen in February, which extended the American’s winning streak to seven.

According to an initial report from the social media account Real Kevin K, Hernandez and Dolidze will square off in the headliner of the UFC’s August 9th card in Las Vegas. MMA Fighting has also confirmed the match-up with sources.

Dolidze (15-3), meanwhile, recorded a unanimous decision win over Marvin Vettori in his last bout, which took place in March. The Georgian fighter has won three in a row.

Currently, Hernandez is ranked #9 in the UFC’s middleweight rankings and Dolidze is ranked #8.
