Holland, “This sucks, why you hitting me so hard”. #UFC227

— Ian McCall (@Unclecreepymma) August 5, 2018

Holland out here doing his best Gumby impression. #UFC227

— Matt Schnell (@DANGER_Caged) August 5, 2018

This new guy #Holland looked like he was out classed at 1st, but is looking the part heading into round 3. #ufc227

— Dennis Bermudez (@MenaceBermudez) August 5, 2018

Holland earning mad respect by going to round three with Santos, and putting him in some bad positions at the end of the second. #UFC227 pic.twitter.com/vT0zLAcDZg

— The Mane Event™ (@EliasTheodorou) August 5, 2018

Respect to Kevin Holland! Tons of heart and he showed up for sure!

— Chris Camozzi (@ChrisCamozzi) August 5, 2018

Holland is unreal. Undersized at middleweight and fighting like a real life “Drunken Gumby Master” AND on short notice.
Crazy that he needs to lose 15 more lbs (where I lose or gain 10 for the next wgt class) just to get to 170 to compete w/guys his size and strength. #UFC227

— Aljamain Sterling (@FunkMaster_UFC) August 5, 2018
