Check out our interview with “The Future” Garry from earlier this week:

Anthony Hernandez def. Josh Fremd via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 29-28).

A good rally by Fremd in Round 2, but 30-27 is correct in the opinion of Indy Sport.

Hernandez with a ridiculous pace.

Hernandez reestablishes the pattern of the first round and start of the second, controlling Fremd in the grappling exchanges and looking for submissions.

Neither a guillotine nor D’Arce are successful, but Hernandez is still in control.
