Drew Dober delivered his second-straight knockout win earlier tonight (Sat., March 7, 2026) at UFC 326 LIVE on Paramount+ from inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nev., stopping lightweight veteran Michael Johnson with a devastating second-round finish.
Johnson looked good in the early going and jumped off to an early lead. After some suspicious pre-fight betting activity flipped Johnson to an underdog he ended up a favorite after the first five minutes. Unfortunately for Johnson, his luck would run
out in the second round when Dober connected with a massive left hand. Johnson immediately went limp and his head crashed off the canvas. It was a pretty violent stoppage.
Check out the video highlights below:
Dober, 37, needed this win in a big way. Despite his recent TKO finish over Kyle Prepolec last October the veteran lightweight was just 2-4 in his last six trips to the Octagon. Johnson is one of the toughest outs not in the lightweight top 15 so to put him out in this type of fashion shows that Dober still has some bite left.
