One of the most active fighters in the UFC’s recent history, Kevin Holland has never said no to any fights. ‘TrialBlazer’ took every fight Dana White threw at him, which seems to have some consequences. Continuous fights seem to have had some impact on the ‘TrialBlazer’s movements as he looked a bit sloppy against Bellator’s top-notch fighter, Michael Page.

After the loss, ‘TrialBlazer’ left the octagon brokenhearted but Kevil Holland knows how to uplift the mood even in defeat.

The welterweight division of the UFC is filled with deadly fighters and the inclusion of Micahel ‘Venom’ page to the roster is like an overkill. Page’s win against Kevin Holland has asserted his position in the UFC. According to Page, he wants one fight from the UFC, and it is none other than, Leon Edwards.
“It’s more so, like I said, the legacy of what that means for the UK – two UK fighters fighting for a title, I don’t think they’ve seen that before. And I like to inspire, so it says to everybody back in the UK that is training, amateur fighters that are training, that is very much achievable. I think what Leon Edwards has done, his journey is unbelievable. But that, married with my style, my charisma, and the energy I can bring, the goal is to sell out a stadium somewhere in the UK – that would be a memorable occasion.” said Page in an interview.
