Kevin Holland suffered two back-to-back losses in the UFC for the first time. He lost to the likes of Derek Brunson and Marvin Vettori. Both men used the same game plan and exposed a gaping hole in Holland’s game, i.e. wrestling. ‘Trailblazer’ had little to no takedown defense or ground game, which both men took advantage of in a big way.
Hence, Holland has recognized this as a weakness and has taken steps to improve his wrestling game. ‘Trailblazer’ spent a few weeks at American Kickboxing Academy with Daniel Cormier to work on his wrestling, which is sure to have helped him improve. Furthermore, Holland has now started working with former UFC champion and NCAA Division 1 Wrestling champion Johny Hendricks.

If Holland can fix his wrestling, it will make him a force to be reckoned with in the UFC. ‘Trailblazer’ has legitimate one-punch knockout power, which he has displayed time and time again. Standing and trading with him will more often than not result in his opponent getting knocked down.
However, for that, it will be important for him to keep the fight on a vertical base. Hence, it will be interesting to see how far Holland has developed his wrestling game when he steps into the octagon in October.
