Holland saw the position become delicate in the final seconds of the first round, but noticed that the submission was not adjusted and, therefore, he was not even at risk of being submitted. Immediately, he indicated that he was fine, with his thumbs raised.
Holland, who made his debut at welterweight (up to 77kg), starts off on the right foot in the division led by Kamaru Usman. In his career, there are now 22 positive results, seven negative results and one draw, in addition to breathing a sigh of relief for overcoming a phase of three fights without winning in Ultimate.
Now, Cowboy can't get back on the path to triumph. The veteran felt the 'bitter taste' of the 12th setback, while he also has 22 wins, one draw and two 'unsuccessful' fights. He is at risk of being fired from the organization.
