At UFC 272 on Saturday night, Kevin Holland made his welterweight return after more than four years competing at middleweight. “Trailblazer” (a.k.a “Big Mouth”) made a strong first impression as a 170-pound competitor in the UFC by stopping veteran Alex Oliveira via TKO in the second round.
During his recent appearance on The MMA Hour, Holland expressed a bit of dissatisfaction in his performance, giving it a mere “C+”. But as far as his future plans go, he wants to keep himself active in 2022.
“Shoot, if they’ve got something available next month at 185 pounds — because I don’t feel like going on a diet right this second — then I’ll do that, too,” Holland told Ariel Helwani.
