Kevin Holland is right now a very busy man, after recently agreeing to fight Jack Hermansson on a short notice, since Darren Till pulled out citing an injury. His fight against Jack would be the fifth fight for him this year; he is already on a hot win streak, beating all the opponents he has faced this year. A win over Jack Hermansson would shoot him up in the middleweight rankings, as Jack is one of the best in the business.

Recently, Kevin Holland spoke about his future plans, he revealed that he would like to fight big names like Jorge Masvidal and Israel Adesanya.

Speaking to Ariel Helwani in his MMA show, Kevin Holland was quoted as saying, “I walk around at 196lbs, you know? I have leverage, I’m tall, I’m long. So I can fight at (middleweight) no problem. But if they had a 175lbs weight class I’d be there. But they do have two belts at 170lbs and I think one belt doesn’t belong at welterweight, you know what I mean? I think you know what I mean.

He further went on talking about the big names he would like to face. Speaking of which, he said, “So, maybe I can go out and slap somebody after the fight, let everybody know that I’m really a bad motherf****r and that I can get a BMF fight. That’s what I’m shooting for, not all this other sh*t, you know? It’s like, I’m going to put work to get the BMF title. While Izzy’s up a weight class doing his thing, I’m going to go down south a little bit, grab some straps, then come up to 185lbs and fight for a real belt. I don’t want to fight for an interim belt, that sounds ridiculous. I like Masvidal, but yeah.”

What do you think of Kevin Holland’s plans? Will the man be able to see off, Jorge and Izzy, if he fights them?
