Middleweights Kevin Holland and Kyle Daukaus are set to meet at a UFC Fight Night event on October 2nd.
MMA Fighting first reported the matchup, though the UFC is yet to officially announce the fight. The Fight Night on October 2nd is expected to be headlined by an all-Brazilian light heavyweight fight between Thiago Santos and Johnny Walker.
After a terrific 2020 campaign that saw him pick up five straight wins at 185-pounds, Holland (21-7) has suffered back-to-back defeats so far in 2021. ‘Trailblazer’ was outwrestled for five rounds by Derek Brunson in March, only to suffer the same treatment against Marvin Vettori the following month.
