Kevin Holland is set for his fourth fight of 2025, scheduled for July 19. He will face Daniel Rodriguez at UFC 318, which is taking place at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana. The event will be headlined by a five-round BMF title fight featuring Max Holloway vs. Dustin Poirier.
This quick turnaround for Holland comes just seven weeks after his last bout, offering him an opportunity to achieve a three-fight winning streak in the UFC for the first time since his impressive five-fight run in 2020. Known as “Trailblazer,” Holland holds a professional record of 28-13 with 1 No Contest. He recently secured victories over Vicente Luque (by stoppage) and Gunnar Nelson (by decision), earning performance bonuses for both wins and recovering from previous middleweight losses.
Daniel Rodriguez, whose record stands at 19-5, is also looking for continued success. He recently delivered a third-round knockout against Santiago Ponzinibbio in May, improving his UFC record to 9-4 following a prior decision win against Alex Morono. The 38-year-old aims to extend his current winning streak to three fights after experiencing a setback with losses in 2024.
