LAS VEGAS – Fighting Bobby Green was everything Drew Dober expected and then some, which made his knockout win at UFC Fight Night 216 that much sweeter.
Dober (26-11 MMA, 12-7 UFC) struggled with Green’s counterpunches and in-fight trash talk in Round 1 and into the second before landing a big knockout with a vicious left hand that sent Green (29-14-1 MMA, 10-9-1 UFC) into unconsciousness. It was quite the way for Dober to push his winning streak to three.
“It was difficult. I don’t know if you saw, but Bobby is one hell of a fighter,” Dober told MMA Junkie and other reporters during a post-fight news conference at the UFC Apex. “All that charisma, that finesse, that creativity, man, he’s so unique. And it was hard to deal with. People said he was quick, and he was in fact.”
