Kevin Holland vs. Alex Oliveira Scheduled For UFC 272 In March

Kevin Holland will make his return to the welterweight division and take on Alex Oliveira at UFC 272 on March 5 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Holland confirmed the booking via his official Only Fans, although the promotion is yet to officially announce anything about the matchup themselves. Holland hasn't fought at 170 pounds since June 2017 and is 0-2-1 in his last three Octagon outings, with his most recent bout against Kyle Daukaus ending in a no-contest due to an accidental clash of heads back at UFC Vegas 38. Oliveira meanwhile is currently riding a three-fight losing streak and will look to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to Niko Price also back at UFC Vegas 38 in his latest appearance.
