Kevin Holland took to social media and offered to step in on short notice to take on Donald Cerrone. ‘Cowboy’ was gearing up to take on Diego Sanchez in what was Sanchez’s last fight with the organization. However, ‘The Nightmare’ has pulled out of the contest and Holland has once again offered his services to remain active.

Holland is the UFC’s go-to man for making good on quick turnarounds. He put forth the idea of a fight against ‘Cowboy’ and offered to scrap at a catchweight of 175-pounds. Given the way the UFC has provided him with his wishes in the past, fans are expecting a booking to take place.

Kevin Holland: The ultimate company man

‘The Trailblazer’ has made it a sort of trend to take fights on short notice, and more often than not, the UFC has taken him up on his offers. His last outing was a late replacement fight against Marvin Vettori that took place at the start of April. Holland subbed in for Darren Till, who broke his collarbone and was forced out of his five-round fight.

Stylistically, taking on Donald Cerrone on short notice would be far more ideal as compared to his recent fights. Kevin Holland has gone toe-to-toe against some credentialed ground fighters as of late, and it hasn’t worked out well. Cerrone will probably look to engage in a stand-up war that will play right into Kevin Holland’s wheelhouse.

Can ‘The Trailblazer’ get back on track?

Kevin Holland was out-grappled in an absolute shut-out against Vettori not too long ago. His recent setback made him reassess his intentions at middleweight, and he considered a long lay-off. However, he seems to have backtracked as fans believe he will pursue the title of the most active fighter in UFC history.

It’s unclear if Donald Cerrone will take up a fight against Holland, especially after looking at the way his stand-up has looked. Also, ‘Trailblazer’ has likely got the strength advantage over Cerrone. Hence, if ‘Cowboy’ opts to clinch, he will be at a disadvantage. However, ‘Cowboy’ has never been one to pick and choose his opponent and will be keen to give fans an exciting war.
