Drew Dober was involved in another thrilling contest this weekend as he faced Bobby Green at UFC Fight Night 216. Green dominated the majority of the first two rounds, often beating his opponent to the punch until the powerful left hand of Dober knocked him out cold.

This was Dober's third knockout win of 2022, and fans are now discussing a hypothetical fight with Michael Chandler. MMA followers took to Twitter to discuss what would be a certified barnburner, with one fan pointing out that both fighters have the ability to take a punch.

A user with the handle @asnapp_ initiated the debate by posting:

@LimitlesssRange claimed that one of them is going to get knocked out:

"Someone's jaw has got to goooooooo"

Drew Dober was involved in one of the best one-round fights against Terrence McKinney at UFC Fight Night 203. After being dropped several times from knee strikes, Dober rallied back and knocked McKinney out with over a minute to go.

Michael Chandler has also been involved in numerous exciting fights. 'Iron' was made aware of the Fight of the Year for his fight with Justin Gaethje at UFC 268, where he sustained a preposterous amount of damage over three rounds.

Several fans were confused by the initial tweet and thought that @asnapp_ implied that the two fighters were twins.

Many others were extremely eager to see this fight become a reality.

Several other fans shared their predictions for the hypothetical fight.


Drew Dober calls out Jalin Turner following KO victory over Bobby Green

Drew Dober closed the year out in style with a stunning knockout against Bobby Green at UFC Fight Night 216. Dober made it three KO wins from three fights in 2022 and is eager to face a top-10 opponent next.

The Nebraska native is currently unranked at lightweight, but the division is filled to the brim with top-tier talent, and breaking into the top 15 isn't easy.

During his post-fight interview, Dober claimed that Green was the only person to accept a bout agreement against him this quarter. However, that didn't stop him from calling out Jalin Turner during his interview:

"I think there's a guy in the top 10, his name's Jalin Turner. Six foot three monster, I would love those problems. So please say yes."
