Yet again we have Kevin Holland stepping up on short notice. This time he is back up at Middleweight and taking on another striker. I love Kevin, I think we all do, but these short notice step-ups haven't been the best thing for him in the past. This time is likely different though, it is striker vs striker and un like his last opponent Michal is a bit flat footed and Kevin should be able to piece him up and snipe him at range. Michal will be dangerous early, probably have some success, but Kevin has a great chin and will get better as the fight goes on and Michal fades. Kevin is the pick and maybe we get a 1.5 round line so I can hit the over.

Kevin Holland

Kevin Holland is an accurate and powerful striker who has struggled with takedown defense but has very solid grappling when he is taken down. Other than the wrestling defense, Kevin is a problem for a lot of people. He's a sniper on his feet with great accuracy and range. He can also grapple really well and be a competitive on the ground with his length. Just because its easy to take him down, you aren't necessarily safe there. He is coming off the one sided loss to a debuting Michael Venom Page where he didn't have much success but did show off his incredible chin.

Michal Oleksiejczuk

Michal Oleksichuck is a very good striker with fast hands and a ton of pressure early. He has power as well with 6 KOs in his 7 UFC wins. While he's dangerous on his feet, he does have grappling holes and can fade as the fight goes on. He is coming off the quick loss to a 185 Michel Pereira.
