Blaine Henry breaks down the mistakes on one side, and good discipline on the other, that led to Bobby Green's sensational 33-second knockout of Grant Dawson at UFC Vegas 80.
. I’m supposed to write an article after every fight and do some technical analysis. You make that incredibly hard when you knock out your opponent in 33 seconds. In case you missed last night’s main event, Green knockedWith the shortness of the main event, we will be diving into the knockdown and how Dawson can avoid this mistake in the future. With the fight only being thirty-three seconds, we are going to have a quick Aftermath. Let’s begin.
Looking at that first punch from Dawson a bit longer, we can see Green’s savvy footwork come into play. Dawson was likely looking for a knee tap where he punches across Green’s chest and picks up the knee. Unfortunately, Green is too much of a veteran for that and managed to stay out of the way. We start the exchange off with Green in southpaw and Dawson in orthodox. As Dawson throws the overhand right, Green steps into orthodox to create space.
Green only stepped out of range of the overhand right but with how Dawson was leading with his head, lowering his hand in the process, Green could have easily come over the top with a lead hook and put Dawson down even earlier.On the knockdown, Green was in southpaw, or right hand forward. Dawson steps in and dips to his right as he mirrors Green’s stance. He lowers his right hand and Green hammers home the straight left out of southpaw. Dawson falls and Green gets the win.
At the end of the day, this was only 33 seconds of a fight and Green showed us what he normally does. We didn’t get to see how Dawson held up against the cardio and pace of Green and if Green could stop the takedown. But that’s not’s fault. His job is to go into the cage and be as efficient as possible. A sub-minute first-round knockout is about as efficient as it gets. He will be tested against a wrestler again eventually.
