A middleweight showdown between Kevin Holland and Darren Stewart is slated for the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s Sept. 19 offering.

Holland announced the pairing in an Instagram post. The card is expected to take place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and is headlined by a welterweight clash pitting Colby Covington against Tyron Woodley.

Holland has posted a 2-0 mark in UFC competition during the pandemic, earning technical knockout triumphs over Anthony Hernandez and Joaquin Buckley. The 27-year-old Texan has won five of his last six Octagon appearances after falling to former light heavyweight title contender Thiago Santos in his promotional debut.

Stewart, meanwhile, has won three of his last four professional outings. Most recently, “The Dentist” submitted Maki Pitolo in the opening stanza at UFC Fight Night 174 on Aug. 8.
