I actually have terminal depression after witnessing chad dobers chin get cracked, and of all people to crack it it was frevola ***.
Happy for frevola anyway glad he’s on a nice run since the McKinney L.

Dober has amazing chin and recovery, but no one is unable to be knocked. In my opinion Dober was beginning to be active in his guard, but Good victory by Frevola. Pimblett clearly doesn't want to fight any of these, whoever wins will win.

@Sirspudgreg Honestly Drew Dober has nothing left to prove in the UFC.
He should sign with PFL and make that bag
We all knew the chin would be crack but we didn’t think it would happen today:/

Dobers low brawling IQ lost that fight. He had him curled to the body and kept throwing looping punches instead of straightening em and kept leaving his chin open.

I only bet that fight on 1 parlay card because of how bad Matt steamrolled Ottman and how often drew gets hit. Good for Matt.

Aljo looks so unconfident. Is that new and its in his head, or is he always like that?
