Rarely do fights predicted to be all-action before the opening horn live up to expectations (Justin Gaethje excluded), but Matt Frevola and Drew Dober both arrived at Prudential Center prepared to throw down, and throw down they did, with Frevola emerging victorious via first-round knockout. It was a firefight from start to finish, and when it was over, Frevola had made a statement and earned himself a fight against an even bigger name the next time out. It was the perfect win for the Long Islander, who rebounded from quick knockout losses to Polo Reyes and Terrance McKinney to make himself a player in one of the UFC’s toughest divisions.
