Drew Dober is set to fight Ricky Glenn in a lightweight matchup at the UFC’s Fight Night event at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas.
A lightweight fight between Drew Dober and Ricky Glenn is scheduled for the upcoming UFC’s Fight Night event on October 7, at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas. The news about the match was confirmed by sources close to the situation on a recent Friday.
Dober, who has an MMA record of 26 wins, 12 losses and 1 no contest, is attempting to bounce back after experiencing a defeat from Matt Frevola via first-round TKO in May at UFC 288. This break halted his three-fight win streak that included triumphant knockout victories against Terrance McKinney and Rafael Alves, earning him accolades of UFC post-fight bonuses. Bobby Green was also among the list of his notable conquests.
Conversely, Glenn, who holds a record of 22 wins, 7 losses and 2 draws, is also looking to recover from a recent loss. His first-round knockout defeat was at the hands of Christos Giagos in April. Since his move back up to the lightweight category in 2021, his performance has yielded mixed outcomes, including a 37-second knockout victory over Joaquim Silva and a majority draw against Grant Dawson. The main event for the UFC’s Fight Night event on October 7 is yet to be officially announced.
