38-year-old veteran Kurt Holobaugh chasing spot in UFC rankings: 'I think that it's possible'

LAS VEGAS – Kurt Holobaugh has seen a lot throughout his 10-year-plus career fighting professionally in MMA. However, one thing that’s eluded him all these years has been a spot in the UFC official rankings.

The 38-year-old lightweight veteran is looking to crack the top 15 of the UFC rankings as his next career goal, and he thinks he’s got the perfect opportunity to close in on that goal. Holobaugh (22-8 MMA, 2-5 UFC) takes on Alexander Hernandez on the main card of UFC Fight Night 255 (ESPN+), which takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex.
