John Dodson has never been finished in 37 pro fights

He had a very good UFC career. He just happened to fight in the Mighty Mouse Era and would never have gotten the belt. I watched his BKFC fights: he looks like The Flash with his opponents moving in slow motion. He'll beat up a lot of people in BKFC, I think.

If Mighty Mouse wasn't the champ it would of been him. Dude was a solid fighter and I'd always watch a card if he was on it.
 
He's found his fighting prowess though at bare Knuckle. He's knocking dudes dead there, let alone his longevity in MMA
 
Seeing Yan piece him up was my Yan breakthrough fight & also thought and wanted him to beat MM first time around.
 
People seem to have also blanked on the fact that Dodson is the only fighter to ever drop Petr Yan.

I may not watch BKFC regularly, but I'm really happy to see fighters like Dodson and Perry having a resurgence there.
 
I remember being absolutely convinced that Dodson was gonna beat MM, both times they fought.
 
40 fights if you count his fights on TUF.

Dude has fought for the title twice against a GOAT candidate. Also fought Dillashaw, Formiga, Lineker, Marlon, Yan, Munhoz, Rivera, Merab, Wineland and none of the dudes were able to get him out of there.

Did John Dodson do okay in UFC?

Oh yeah, he will not have CTE

Also his fight with a prime Lineker in which he hurt him and dropped a close decision is no easy feat.

It's a shame FLW developed so slowly that eras are so disjointed
O'Malley dropped him.

Dodson and Mighty Mouse were awesome to watch in the UFC. Mighty Mouse is still one of my favorite fighters. These guys know how to finish a fight and when it does it happens so fast.

Dobson is a beast in BKFC though.

2 first RD finishes.
