We’ve all wanted to beat up our dentist at one point or another, especially when he insists he gave you enough Novocaine to numb the pain when, in fact, it still hurts like all hell when he’s trying to pull out a wisdom tooth.

True (personal) story.

Kevin Holland recently delivered a world of hurt to his dentist, and it was all a case of mistaken identity. Okay, so he may have pulled some punches in his skit to announce his upcoming fight against Darren Stewart, which is set to take place at an upcoming UFC Fight Night event on September 19, 2020, expected to go down inside UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Just like we called it.

Holland is fresh off an impressive knockout win over Joaquin Buckley at UFC Vegas 6 a few short weeks ago (see it here), giving him his second straight knockout finish. Overall, “Trail Blazer” is 5-2 inside the Octagon with one of his two losses coming to Thiago Santos.

The 27-year old packs some devastating power in his hands, and he’ll need just that to take out the real “Dentist” come fight night. That’s because Stewart has yet to be knocked out in his mixed martial arts (MMA) career. Stewart also competed at the “Lewis vs Oleinik” card, defeating Maki Pitolo in the very first round via submission (see it here).

Though not yet official, the event is set to be headlined by a pivotal Welterweight showdown between former division champion, Tyron Woodley, taking on ex-interim title holder, Colby Covington.
