Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson steps into the octagon for the first time since December 2021 to take on the now un-retired Kevin Holland in this Saturday’s main event.
A former two-time welterweight title challenger, Thompson is just 2-4 in his last six fights and has lost his last two in a row at the hands of Gilbert Burns and Belal Muhammad (both by decision).
After fighting Khamzat Chimaev on one day’s notice and losing via first-round submission at UFC 279, Kevin Holland announced his retirement. That lasted about a month before accepting terms to fight Thompson this Saturday.
Prior to the Chimaev loss, Holland had defeated Alex Oliveira and Time Means - both by second-round finishes.
Holland will stand three inches taller than “Wonderboy” and will have a six-inch reach advantage. He enters the contest this Saturday as a -140 favorite.

Dos Anjos returned to lightweight in 2020 and defeated Paul Felder and Renato Moicano before suffering a knockout loss in his July bout against Rafael Fiziev.
Bryan Barberena is riding a three-fight winning streak with the back-to-back fight of the night honors. He most recently defeated former welterweight champion, Robbie Lawler, via second-round TKO at UFC 276.
Barberena will be the taller man in this fight and will also have a two-inch reach advantage over dos Anjos.
