“I ALWAYS BUY HIM SHOES,” Dana White candidly speaks on his relationship with Kevin Holland sharing LOVE for sneakers with him

Kevin Holland- Dana White

The relationship between Dana White and certain fighters has evolved with time, either from better to best or nothing to best, Kevin Holland is one of the most fighters that share a unique chemistry with the UFC President. Holland is a UFC welterweight who occasionally fought at middleweight as well early in his UFC career. Holland’s rise to fame was from taking the most fights in a single year in UFC history, which was 5 and not only did he fight but he also won them all in a spectacular fashion.

Holland’s list of victories includes the likes of Tim Means, Alex Oliveira, Joaquin Buckley, Ronaldo Souza, Gerald Meerschaert and many more. Holland is fighting this weekend against Daniel Rodriguez at UFC 279. The main event of UFC 279 is headlined by welterweights Khamzat Chimaev and Nate Diaz. This is possibly the biggest fight in Chimaev’s career and possibly Diaz’s last UFC fight. In the co-main event, former interim-UFC lightweight champion Tony Ferguson will make his welterweight debut against Li Jingliang.

In the midst of all, White was asked about gifting the winner of the Holland-Rodriguez fight a pair of sneakers since they both the welterweights are fanatics of the millennials’ footwear, White had a rather interesting answer.

“Me and Kevin Holland are weird,” says White. “We buy shoes for each other so yeah, he was with me when I went to the Surgeon, so… I buy him shoes anyway, I always buy him shoes and he just bought me some shoes that he’s bringing me to.”
