The read
Dober's power and finishing instincts make him the live threat if this stays standing, and his recent form is sharper than his opponent's.
Duncan's own grappling and submission rate are a real path to victory if he can get the fight to the mat and avoid the exchanges that cost him his last outing.
A live finish for either man.
The matchup
Dober's knockout power and durability have kept him a dangerous out for anyone at 155 pounds, and he arrives off back-to-back finishes.
Duncan brings his own submission craft and a win over Terrance McKinney to the table, but he was stopped in his most recent outing by Renato Moicano's face crank, raising questions about how he responds off a loss.
