The main event opening fight was an all out kickboxing fight as Holland and Chirico exchanged punches and kicks. Chirico landed the most damaging strikes in the first round and got it in his favour. Holland came back strong in the second round as he landed some knees in the clinch followed by a quick take down. It seemed like Holland had injured his right shoulder in the second round, as he replied mostly on his left arm to land punches, which caused the third round to slow down a bit and the crowd going restless. Holland is now on a three fight win streak after his first UFC loss.
