Kevin Holland

Kevin Holland is one of those fighters who makes the UFC genuinely fun to watch — the guy is an absolute showman inside the octagon, and I mean that as a compliment. Born in Riverside, California in 1992, he came up through Bellator and the regional circuit before breaking out in the UFC middleweight division around 2020, when he went on a five-fight winning streak that had people seriously talking. What I love about Holland is that he'll literally carry on conversations with opponents mid-fight, like some kind of trash-talking philosopher who also happens to throw nasty submissions. He's since moved between middleweight and welterweight, which tells you he's restless and hungry. He's not the most decorated guy on the roster, but few fighters have his blend of charisma, creativity, and genuine danger — every time he steps in, something wild is going to happen.
