Kevin Holland Taps Vicente Luque Quick And Calls Out Colby Covington

What a great win and callout for Kevin Holland at UFC 316! He went in there and made quick work of Jersey's own Vicente Luque and then asked for a shot at the "worst welterweight in the division" aka Colby Covington. 

Holland was living up to his "Big Mouth" nickname in there and talking shit the whole time, too; I could hear him shouting "WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?!" in Luque's fight from my seat cageside. He told Joe Rogan that he fell asleep watching 'Ali' last night and woke up still watching it this morning though, so I guess that makes sense. Take inspiration from the best!

Holland has had a few back-and-forth performances recently, but looked phenomenal in his last couple fights and is ready to commit back to Welterweight after bouncing between 170-185 for a while. I think that's probably his smartest move if the cut is manageable, and with a win over Covington, he could crack the Top 10 immediately. Colby is somehow still ranked #9 after dropping his last two (and four out of his last six) fights which makes zero sense - but let's book this fight and change that immediately. 

Oh, and I guess Themba Gorimbo is upset about that result?
