UFC Vegas 66 video: Drew Dober demolishes Bobby Green with ... (MMA Fighting)

Drew Dober was eating a lot of punches early but he delivered an absolutely devastating one-punch knockout to finish Bobby Green at UFC Vegas 66.

That’s when Dober found a home for his left hand and Green slowed down momentarily while he was stuck against the cage. Green popped Dober with shots constantly throughout the opening round, with a couple of those punches rattling Dober, who refused to back down while still exchanging in the pocket. By the end of the first round, blood poured down Dober’s face from all the punishment. Despite eating a lot of punches through the first half of their fight, Dober kept marching forward and throwing huge hooks just chasing Green’s chin. It was hard to deal with but I’m blessed that I found it. He’s fast, he’s hard to hit.

In Round 2, Green continued his display of vintage showmanship – including some hands-up taunting, both of quick and lengthy variations. Kicks were popular, particularly at the end of the round – and particularly in the favor of Green.

Prediction: Drew Dober vs. Bobby Green | UFC Fight Night 216 odds (The Body Lock)

Drew Dober is a 34-year-old charismatic lightweight who doesn't know how to do anything other than put on fight of the night worthy fights or win ...

Early in the fight, Green fights behind his jab; which, because of his low hands, comes from an odd angle below the eyeline of his opponent and lands with a high rate of success. Green is 2-3 in his last 5, but 2 of those losses came to the now champion, Makhachev, and top 5 lightweight, Fiziev. He has been in the UFC since 2013 and his career is riddled with early finishes and fan-friendly brawls. Like Dober, Green has a hell of a chin. He really turned a corner in 2019, adding more power to his game, and has gone 5-2 since then. But because a shoulder roll can often look like a clean land, Green has been the victim of some questionable split decisions.
