, July 18, 2026, inside Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Social media user Kevin K was first to break the news . Holland (29-15-1) enters the matchup coming off a much-needed unanimous decision victory over Randy Brown at UFC 327, snapping a two-fight skid.
Before that win, “Trailblazer” suffered back-to-back defeats against Mike Malott and Daniel Rodriguez , though the Rodriguez fight still somehow managed to become one of the wildest and most entertaining Welterweight scraps of that year . The longtime UFC action fighter has alternated wins and losses over his last several appearances and currently sits at 4-4 across his previous eight fights. Now, he gets another dangerous up-and-comer thrown at him.
