Kevin Holland Form
Kevin Holland (21-6) stormed up the middleweight rankings with five straight victories in 2020.
Holland’s signature win in that time saw him stop Brazilian legend Ronaldo ‘Jacare’ Souza with strikes in less than two minutes.
However, that streak was ended by a decision defeat to Derek Brunson last month.
Not only did the loss damage his stock, the manner of the loss drew plenty of criticism.
Apart from a load of trash talk, Holland offered very little in response when taken down by Brunson.
Marvin Vettori Form
Marvin Vettori received the backing of one judge in a split decision defeat to Israel Adesanya in April 2018.
Since then he has had no problem getting the backing of the judges.
Vettori is riding a four-fight win streak that has seen him best Cezar Ferreira and Andrew Sanchez over three rounds and Jack Hermansson over five.
His sole stoppage win in this run came when he submitted Karl Roberson in the first round.
Vettori has a 16-1-1 professional record, with two wins coming via KO/TKO and nine via submission.
