Kevin Holland vs. Kyle Daukaus in the works for UFC event on Oct. 2

Middleweights Kevin Holland and Kyle Daukaus are expected to clash at the upcoming UFC Fight Night card scheduled on Oct. 2.

Multiple sources confirmed the matchup to MMA Fighting on Monday with verbal agreements in place from both athletes. While contracts have not been issued, it’s expected that the fight will go down on Oct. 2, although that date could potentially change depending on the UFC’s plans.

Following a blistering 5-0 run in 2020 capped off by a stunning knockout over veteran middleweight contender Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza, Holland suffered back-to-back losses in his two most recent fights against Marvin Vettori and Derek Brunson.
