AUGUST 22 • THEBIGLEAD.COM

Manhandled in Qatar Hermansson lost to Myktybek Orolbai via KO (punch) at 2:46 of Round 1 at UFC Qatar on Saturday.

Impact The decision to drop down to welterweight didn't work out for Hermansson, who suffered his third KO/TKO loss in four trips to the Octagon. He had a bit of success with his jab early, but soon ate a big right hand that compromised him and had Orolbai smelling blood in the water. In his barrage of follow-up shots, Orolbai found another right hand that shut the lights out completely. It will be back to the drawing board for Hermansson, who should take some time away after multiple bad KO losses.

Next fight at welterweight Hermansson is scheduled to compete against Myktybek Orolbai in a welterweight fight at UFC Qatar on Nov, 22, MMA Junkie reports.

Impact After a disastrous loss to Gregory Rodriguez at UFC 317, Hermansson will move down a weight class from middleweight to welterweight. Interestingly, his opponent is also changing weight classes, moving up from lightweight to welterweight.

Destroyed by Gregory Rodrigues Hermansson lost to Gregory Rodrigues via KO (punch) at 4:21 of Round 1 at UFC 317 on Saturday in Las Vegas.

Impact It was a disappointing performance from Hermansson in his first fight in nearly 17 months. He fought Rodrigues evenly for nearly the entirety of the opening frame, only to get crushed with a left hand late in the round which knocked him out cold before he hit the mat. Jack then had to deal with a vicious follow-up shot from Rodrigues because referee Herb Dean didn't step in quickly enough. Hermansson has had durability issues in the past and it's fair to wonder if that's only going to get worse as he ages. Now 37 years old, four of Jack's nine career defeats have come via knockout. He has somehow alternated losses and wins in his past 10 fights dating back to April 2019.
