    That's a shame. I wanted to see him matched up against some of the newest CW ****ers. He never really followed up on those Cunningham wins.

      That's odd, he wasn't that old and also the finance trouble.

        Good riddance to trash. The guy didn't do anything for years post Cunningham.

        Leave the division to better fighters with bigger balls.

          That's a surprise. A shame really as there are good fights that could of been made at CW that involve him.

            I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully he makes a full recovery.

            Unfortunately I dont think this will end well. Apparently Hernandez is in debt so he might end up as an opponent in the ring again. A shame. He was always enjoyable to watch and I would hate for him to return for the money as a stepping Stone for young fighters.

                You could tell the injuries were taking their toll in the Arslan fight. Didn't look the same. Still weird. He will be back though, if the rumor at the end is true about his finances. IDK if I'd trust that gossip 100% though. How'd they know unless it really is bad?

                  It appears to be true. Thanks to an extramarital affair, Hernandez has to pay child support (4245 € once plus 416 € on a monthly basis) and on top of that he's lost a huge sum of money (that was meant for the tax authorities) to false friends in the past.

                  According to Bild, practically his entire purse for the Arslan fight (250,000 €) was used to pay for these tax obligations.

                    Ouch.. I didn't know it was out, just figured it might be rumblings. That makes this extra disappointing then.
