CRAZY UPSET! Bobby Green Smokes Grant Dawson at UFC Vegas 80
Bobby Green knocked out Grant Dawson in under 40 seconds at UFC Vegas 80
Bobby Green came out for a good time – not a long time.
In a shocking upset, “King” Green slept Grant Dawson with a slick left hand. Green came into the bout as a heavy underdog – the biggest dog on the main card. Dawson was undefeated in the UFC and 20-1 overall coming into the bout, so him being a -455 betting favorite made sense.
Until it didn’t.
BOBBY GREEN JUST SHOCKED THE WORLD!!!

It only took 33 seconds for Green to find a home for a left straight – and that singular punch spelled the end for Dawson. That makes 2 finishes in a row for the fan-favorite Green, who has his eyes set on an unlikely title run late in his career.

Dawson came into the bout as the 10th-ranked lightweight. Green likely earned a ranking with his performance, meaning the 9th-ranked Hooker and 13th-ranked Moicano make a lot of sense.
