UFC 299 Results: Michael Page defeats Kevin Holland (Highlights)
We have you covered for all of tonight’s UFC 299 results, including the welterweight bout between Michael Page and Kevin Holland.
Page (21-2 MMA) will be competing in MMA for the first time since Bellator 292 in March of 2023, where he scored a first-round TKO victory (leg kick) over Goiti Yamauchi. That win was preceded by a split decision loss to Logan Storley which occurred in May of 2022.
Meanwhile, Kevin Holland (25-10 MMA) will be looking to rebound after suffering a split decision loss to Jack Della Maddalena in his most recent effort last September. That setback snapped a two-fight winning streak for ‘Trailblazer’, who had previously scored wins over Michael Chiesa and Santiago Ponzinibbio respectively.
