The UFC is eying an exciting match between Kevin Holland and Kyle Daukaus set to take place on October 2.

The #14 ranked Holland will look to re-establish his name in the middleweight division after suffering back-to-back losses. The news was first reported by sources at MMA Fighting. In addition, a location or venue has yet to be announced.

The lengthy Holland is always exciting to watch given his reach advantage but lately the 28-year old been struggling to keep up with the wrestling skills of his opponents in his last two fights. Standing at 6 foot 3, Holland is a puzzling foe while standing and has a great repertoire of strikes to choose from.

Since then, Holland has joined forces with American Kickboxing Academy (AKA) and hasn’t looked back. So, perhaps we may see a different Holland when he faces Daukaus on Oct. 2.

Daukaus Looking To Make A Name Off Kevin Holland

The 28-year old Daukaus last competed in the Octagon when he took on Phil Hawes in May but dropped a unanimous decision loss. The pairing with Holland will no doubt give the #14 ranked middleweight a challenge because Daukaus is known for his grappling and submission expertise. In fact, Daukaus has 8 submissions on his record so he’s certainly dangerous on the ground.

As a former Cage Fury Fighting Championship (CFFC) middleweight champ, Daukaus is accustomed to the bright lights, and despite alternating wins and losses with the UFC, will look to turn a corner on Oct. 2 against a ranked opponent. The matchup is without a doubt intriguing because the UFC decided to pair Holland with a wrestler to test the newly found skills he’s picked up at AKA.

With the addition of Kevin Holland vs. Kyle Daukaus added to the UFC card on Oct. 2 here is the current lineup:

  • Thiago Santos vs. Johnny Walker
  • Grant Dawson vs. Diego Ferreira
  • Jared Gordon vs. Joe Solecki
  • Bethe Correia vs. Karol Rosa
  • Fernando Padilla vs. Sean Soriano
  • Douglas Silva de Andrade vs. Gaetano Pirrello
  • Kyle Daukaus vs. Kevin Holland

Who do you favor in the middleweight fight between Kevin Holland vs. Kyle Daukaus?
