Questionable pre-match betting activity reduced Johnson from an underdog to a favorite within the first five minutes. Unfortunately for Johnson, his luck ran out in the second round when Dober connected with a huge left hand. Johnson immediately went limp and his head came off the canvas. It was a pretty violent interruption.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Check out the video highlights below:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Dober, 37, desperately needed this win. Despite his most recent TKO win over Kyle Pripolek last October, the veteran lightweight is just 2-4 in his last six visits to the Octagon. Johnson is one of the toughest outs not ranked in the lightweight top 15, so putting him out there in this type of fashion shows that Dober still has some bite left in him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\"><strong>Click here for complete UFC 326 results, coverage and highlights.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drew Dober earned his second straight knockout win tonight (Saturday, March 7, 2026).
