Holland detailed the chase and at one point said the alleged car thief attempted to run over him when he tried to confront him. After the suspect crashed into a trailer, Holland said he followed him and kicked him in the legs to knock him down. He finally jumped on him and held him down.

On Saturday Holland was part of a wild ending at UFC Fight Night in a clash against Kyle Daukaus. Within three minutes of the start of the fight, Holland and Daukaus accidentally hit their heads, knocking Holland out for a short time.
