Following his victory over Vicente Luque at UFC 316, Kevin Holland called for a fight with Colby Covington, suggesting it would be a major draw for fans. Holland proposed that instead of the ongoing Ultimate Fighter season featuring Daniel Cormier and Chael Sonnen, a season featuring him and Covington would be more appealing. He confidently stated that their fight would be a co-main event success, bringing substantial ticket sales without needing a star-studded undercard. Additionally, he shrugged off a call-out from Themba Gorimbo, indicating the latter's lack of relevance in the welterweight division.
"Holland believes a fight with Colby Covington would be a blockbuster event, saying, 'Me and Colby could do whatever. Anything you guys wanted to do with me and Colby it would sell.'"
"Holland dismissed Themba Gorimbo's call-out, remarking, 'I don't think I'm on his hit list. That guy so far down the totem pole it's ridiculous.'"
