UFC’s April 10th Fight Night event had a major downfall when one of the fighters from headline event had to be pulled off from the fight. Marvin Vettori was originally scheduled to fight Darren Till on April 10th in the main event. Darren then had to be pulled off due to a collar bone injury.
When the promotion was looking for a replacement, UFC’s one of the most entertaining fighters, Kevin Holland stepped up to replace Till against Vettori. ‘Big Mouth’ is coming off a defeat against Derek Brunson just two weeks ago. Kevin barely had a decent performance last time but now he is all confident to fight.
The fighter posted on Twitter last week replying to Marvin Vettori’s tweet. Marvin wrote, “Always do my part 100% and these bunch of pussies can’t make it. Im next in line for the title, whoever has something to say show the fuck up in 2 weeks so I can whoop your ass and shut you off for good.”
Replying to his callout, Kevin replied with a picture of him on March 31st suggesting that he will be the replacement but nothing was official then. Kevin wrote on his account, “I already accepted the fight an hour ago…” asking Vettori to “chill”.
“April fools b*tches, see you April 10th,” says Kevin Holland as he confirms the fight against Vettori
Kevin Holland is the chosen replacement against Marvin Vettori for the UFC Fight Night event taking place on April 10th. Kevin is coming off a defeat against Derek Brunson via unanimous decision. The “trailblazer” fought 5 fights before the Brunson fight and won them all.
Kevin fought 5 fights in the same year. Looks like he’s trying to do the same this year too. With just a fight down two weeks ago, Kevin has agreed to fight Marvin Vettori a week later. In a Twitter video the fighter said, “April Fools bitches, see you on April 10th”.
