A welterweight bout between Kevin Holland and Alex Oliveira takes place on the main card of tonight’s UFC 272 event.
Holland (22-7 MMA) will be making his welterweight debut this evening, this after dropping his last two fights at middleweight. ‘Trailblazer’ was coming off back-to-back decision losses to Marvin Vettori and Derek Brunson.
Meanwhile, Alex Oliveira (22-12 MMA) entered tonight’s contest with hopes of snapping a three-fight losing skid. ‘Cowboy’ was outpointed by Niko Price in his most previous effort this past October.
After a wild opening round, which saw Alex Oliveira rocks Kevin Holland and take his back late, ‘Trailblazer’ came out firing in round two. He rocks Oliveira and then proceeded to finish him off with brutal ground and pound.
