UFC 332 delivered its share of surprises, but none sparked as much reaction as Kevin Holland’s last-minute withdrawal. Jacobe Smith, who had been preparing for this bout for weeks, did not hide his frustration after learning of the cancellation. This isn’t the first time Holland, injured, has denied him a carefully prepared showdown.
Smith’s fight against Bruce Whitehead, won in just 92 seconds by KO, confirmed his explosive form. Yet, it was Holland’s absence that dominated the discussions.
