UFC welterweight Kevin Holland is up for anyone as a potential next opponent, but thinks a particular undefeated peer should stay off his path.
Holland (24-9 MMA, 11-6 UFC) is on the heels of knocking out Santiago Ponzinibbio in the third round at UFC 287 in Miami, and is already itching to get back into the cage. Michael Chiesa was mentioned as a potential opponent, and Holland says he could be ready for that fight a month from now.
“I think May would be really quick, but I think that I would be rightfully so ready for a Chiesa fight if he wanted to step in there in May,” Holland told MMA Junkie Radio. “If not, we could do it after May, or whoever they have lined up for me, whenever they want me to go. It really doesn’t matter. If I get to go soon, awesome. If not, I could wait until slightly after July.”
