UFC APEX – After hearing that his opponent isn’t a fan of his UFC featherweight Alexander Hernandez didn’t really care that Damon Jackson doesn’t like him ahead of their fight at UFC Vegas 90 on Saturday night.
“I don’t. I don’t know. I’m pretty neutral about him,” Hernandez told reporters on Wednesday.
“I’m pretty neutral about him.”
Earlier in the day Jackson has said he didn’t like some of the things Hernandez had mentioned about UFC Hall of Famer Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone.
“Oh that’s…pretty homosexual,” Hernandez said of Jackson’s comments.
“That was a long time ago. That’s like the softest sh*t of all time dude. I promise Cowboy doesn’t care about you. I was just drinking beers and eating hot dogs and in San Antonio with Cowboy when he made it to the hall of fame. That’s kind of silly to cry over another man’s woes.”
Hernandez (14-7) fought Cerrone in 2019 and lost after eating a head kick in the second round.
“F*ck no. I don’t give a f*ck. Think I want to remember that anyways? No. I don’t care to bring that up. That was first year I was here maybe? Five, six years ago? Yeah that’s a wild thing to be holding onto,” he said.
“I’m excited. I’m really excited to hurt Damon. He can be mad or be however he wants to be, but I’m going to be calculated.”
