Veteran middleweight Ed Herman said he would’ve fought Kevin Holland at UFC Vegas 5 if given the option. But when his fight with Gerald Meerschaert was canceled to due Meerschaert’s positive COVID-19 test, he was told a replacement couldn’t be found.
“Basically, I was told my fight is off,” Herman told MMA Fighting on Tuesday. “I said can you guarantee my fight? Can you find anybody else? They said no.”
After hearing Holland’s recent comments on Twitter, Holland is his leading choice for a future opponent.
“I kind of want to punch Kevin in the face if he’s still talking sh*t,” Herman told MMA Fighting on Tuesday.
