‘I’m gonna retire him and send him to an old person’s home’: Luis Hernandez responds to UFC veteran’s callout
Key Points:
- UFC fighter Juan Hernandez recently secured two submission wins in 11 days, including a rapid 57-second victory over Sedriques Dumas at UFC Vegas 121, taken on just two days' notice.
- Chris Curtis, who has a past confrontation with Hernandez, publicly called him out, claiming he would easily defeat him; Hernandez responded by criticizing Curtis's age and record, and vowed to "retire" him if they fight.
- Hernandez, also a Miami-Dade Sheriff’s deputy, expressed respect for Dumas despite their contrasting backgrounds and hopes Dumas can make better life choices moving forward.
- Reflecting on the earlier Tuff-N-Uff incident involving Curtis and Sean Strickland, Hernandez noted Curtis did not retaliate at the time and believes Curtis is now seeking attention by targeting him.
- Despite the past altercation, Hernandez maintains a friendly relationship with Strickland, the UFC middleweight champion, and they plan to train and go shooting together in the near future.
