Drew Dober beat Terrance McKinney at UFC Vegas 50 and derailed the lightweight fighter’s hype train as he snapped ‘T.Wrecks’ win streak.
‘T.Wrecks’ went into the octagon against Dober on short notice after just finishing Fares Ziam three weeks ago at UFC Fight Night: Islam Makhachev vs. Bobby Green. McKinney, who tried to keep his weight low after the previous fight, sprang into action as soon as the opportunity arose.

Wrecks’ to the mat and unloaded on his downed opponent until the referee came to stop the fight. At last, Dober walked out of the fight with a TKO win at UFC Vegas 50.
