Drew Dober vs Rafael Alves Prediction

This could be one of the best fights of the entire card as these are two great fighters. Dober comes into this fight as a 155 favorite and will look to pull off the win today. Dober is fresh off a win improving his record to 24-11. These are two veteran fighters that bring a ton of experience into this fight.

Dober is a thirty-three-year-old who stands 5”7, weighing in at 155 pounds. Rafael Alvers enters this fight with an overall record of 20-10. Alvers stands 5”7 also weighing in at 155 pounds. The one advantage that we will see in this fight is the reach in favor of Dober. Dober has a reach of seventy inches vs. Dober's reach of sixty-eight. That could play a factor in a fight that will be so closely competitive. 

I believe these guys are both outstanding fighters, and for that reason, I am taking the over here tonight. These are two talented fighters that are hard to knock out. I understand they have the knockout ability but I expect a feeling-out process here early in round one. In the second round, we will have to sweat a little as I expect these fighters to be more aggressive in round two. I trust that we can get to this number and cash in!
