Kyle Daukaus vs Kevin Holland

It seems like Kevin Holland and Kyle Daukaus are destined to settle their business inside the octagon as the fellow middleweights have now got the rematch scheduled for November 13 at UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs Rodriguez, following their contentious ending in the first fight. The first fight happened back on October 2 at UFC Vegas 38: Santos vs Walker, when their fight ended in a no-contest due to an accidental clash of heads, leaving both disappointed.

The decision to make it a no-contest happened with the help of an instant replay of the ending, Holland taps out to Dauakaus‘ guillotine but is rather preceded by the clashing of heads that made a huge difference. At the advice of Herb Dean, the no-contest was ruled by the respective referee, Dan Miragliotta. Now since both the fighters were immediately in an agreement after that they would run it back, the wish has been fulfilled and here they are, with a month and some days to go. In that case, let’s take a look at the card they are in.

Max Holloway- Yair Rodriguez

The card is headlined by exciting UFC featherweights “El Pantera” Yair Rodriguez and “Blessed” Max Holloway. Both the fighters are exciting strikers with “Pantera” being more of a kickboxer as compared to Holloway’s emphasis on boxing though he doesn’t shy away from throwing a kick or two. Both were originally scheduled before to fight early this year in July until Holloway pulled out citing an injury.

Holland is currently 21-7-1 in pro-MMA now while Daukaus is 10-2-1 now. These middleweights are exciting in their respective specialisation, with Holland being an unpredictable striker and Daukaus being a submission artist. How a second coming turns out will be seen on November 13, but this will be a much more calculated fight considering they both have experienced getting inside with each other, even for a brief period of time.
