Grant Dawson (20-1-1) has been undefeated since July 2016 and currently holds the 10th rank in the UFC’s lightweight division.
His only setback during this impressive streak was a majority draw against Ricky Glenn in October 2021. Dawson is a skilled grappler with 13 professional wins via submission.
He excels at securing stoppage victories through ground-and-pound and is more comfortable on the mat than standing upright.
Although he has faced challenges with weight management, leading to forfeited earnings and catch-weight bouts, he has never gone the full five rounds but appears well-prepared for the extended cage time.
Dawson’s path to victory lies in taking Green down and engaging in prolonged grappling exchanges, as his boxing skills are not on par with Green’s. His chin will be tested against Green’s jabs and straight rights.
Bobby Green (30-14-1) is an enigmatic fighter who sometimes appears disinterested in his bouts. He has only secured one victory in his last four fights, against the aging Tony Ferguson, who many believe should have retired from the sport earlier.
Green possesses fast hands and slick movement but lacks a well-rounded game, including kick options and grappling skills.
The 37-year-old has faced some of the UFC’s top names, such as Islam Makhachev, Rafael Fiziev, and Drew Dober, with all three matchups ending in defeat for the Californian.
Retirement might be on Green’s mind, and a run at the lightweight title seems unlikely at this stage of his career.

Grant Dawson vs Bobby Green UFC Betting Tips
This matchup is a classic battle of contrasting styles and will be determined by where the fight unfolds. If Green can keep the fight standing, he should be able to exploit Dawson’s vulnerabilities with persistent jabs. However, this advantage disappears if Dawson can close the distance and capitalize on takedown opportunities with body locks and single legs. With confidence, we predict the younger and fresher Dawson to secure victory through submission.
