He made his professional debut at Sycuan in June, stopping the more experienced Jeremy Fattorusso in under three minutes.
“It’s been an incredible year for the partnership between Cage Warriors and Sycuan Casino Resort,” said Graham Boylan, president of Cage Warriors. “We’ve had three sell-out shows, brought the fans some crazy fights, and developed new stars in the way that only Cage Warriors can. One of those stars is San Diego’s own Roberto Hernandez, who’s going to have the biggest test of his career against a dangerous UFC veteran in Trevin Jones. With the card we have planned, we’re set to end the year with a bang on December 15.”
Further bouts for CW 165 will be announced in due course, with details available at CageWarriors.com.
