Rodolfo is fighting Stoltzfus in a couple months, who has never been subbed in his career, but purple belt just like Hernandez was, and his record stands at 13-2.
It's kinda funny because if Hernandez didn't get finished so fast against Holland, the fight may not have been considered an upset of such magnitude, aside from the fact that Rodolfo got tapped. Hernandez was also a pretty good prospect before he ran into Holland, though in MMA, one loss you are a can and has never been good.
I'm not sure if Rodolfo's one round cardio was really just a case of adrenaline dump, or he really has shit cardio. If he really does have shit cardio, I don't think he can fix it in such a short amount of time, and this guy looks like he's a lot hittable than Maia too, and doesn't react well to it. Maia is as tough as they come, to be honest.
I thought Rodolfo might be next Maia, if I'm honest. It looked like he was taking MMA seriously, with a good camp, and obviously a great world class BJJ. But I'm not sure if Rodolfo has that cardio or that striking defense that Maia has, as wierd as it may sound. Outside Nate, if you think about it, it's really really really hard to put Maia away, and that prob was more of a flash knock down to be honest.
Nowadays, it feels like it's impossible to tell how good someone is in MMA grappling just based on belt color or credentials too. I'd think Rodolfo is still good and still can make a come back, but to be honest, I'm not too entirely confident.
So Sherbros, can Rodolfo make a comeback like Maia did after getting ktfo by Nate and go on a run or is he losing two in a row and possibly done?
