Kevin Holland and Jack Della Maddalena are in the upcoming UFC Fight Night 227 co-main event. This is a welterweight bout, and the winner could be in an excellent position regarding his future bouts in the division.
Before Betting on Holland vs. Della Maddalena
Kevin Holland is one of the most known faces in the UFC. He decided to get back to the welterweight division following a solid run among the middleweights, and ever since, he has been posting solid results, losing only to Stephen Thompson and posting four wins apart from that.
His most recent victory was against Michael Chiesa, whom he submitted in the opening round via D’Arce choke, following a confident performance. Previously, he was better than Santiago Ponzinibbio, with the American knocking out the rival. Holland has 25 wins and nine losses.
Della Maddalena wants to make a breakthrough into the welterweight top ten. To do that, he absolutely has to defeat Holland. After the starting two losses in his career, this guy went on to win 15 in a row, five in the UFC.
After knocking out the initial four rivals, he had to settle with a split-decision victory over Bassil Hafez, who was a replacement for two fighters who previously had to withdraw. Eleven of his 15 wins came via KO, and that tells all about his style of fight.
