Dober knocked down Glenn with a vicious straight left in round 1 and followed up with ground-and-pound shots to secure a TKO win. He now holds the record for most T/KO wins (nine) in the UFC lightweight division.
Following a disappointing loss in his previous outing, Dober got back on track in devastating fashion with a vicious first-round knockout over Ricky Glenn on Saturday. Dober stayed in control from the first second of the fight until the last with a left hand that just couldn’t miss.
After blasting Glenn with several hard shots on the feet, Dober unloaded another massive left hook that sent his opponent crashing to the canvas. Dober continued hammering away until Glenn was turning his head and just eating shots with referee Chris Tognoni mercifully stopping the fight.
The end came at just 2:36 in the opening round.

“I came in with zero expectation only reaction,” Dober said about his win. “He’s super, super tough. I know how tough he was so I had zero expectation.
“I stopped looking for the finish. I stopped being natural [in my last fight] and that’s what got me to the knockout record. We brought back the set up. I’m smooth, I’m natural and I’m having fun.”
