In a post-event press conference, Holland reveals that he prefers not to adopt the idea of a fight without results and considers that, in fact, he lost the fight. He, however, says he doesn't remember anything about what happened.
"I believe so. I don't remember anything, but I never thought about contesting, because I'm not that kind of person. In my opinion, he knocked me out and submitted me. It was a 'street fight'. The motto of kung fu is to defend yourself first, but I didn't defend myself. That was my fault,” Holland said.
Asked about his sensations after the headbutt, Kevin reports that he felt bad and had difficulty breathing. Still, the American admits that he says he is open to another fight against Daukaus.
“I felt a little dizzy on the floor and had difficulty breathing, until I found myself in that situation. I was great, hearing and seeing well. I listened to my coaches, I listened to DC (Daniel Cormier) 'whispering' next to the octagon and I was feeling good. (…), but we will fight again”, concluded the 'Trailblazer'.
It is the first 'no result' fight between the athletes. Holland now has a record of 21 victories, seven setbacks and one 'no contest', while Daukaus has ten positive results, two negative results and, now, one fight without result.
