Kevin Holland had quite the experience after his disaster of a fight at UFC Vegas 38. An accidental clash of heads ruined what appeared to be a good performance from Kevin Holland and saw the fight end in a No Contest.

Less than 48 hours later, Kevin Holland found himself face-to-face with a car thief and he helped subdue the would-be criminal. He appeared on The MMA Hour where he discussed what exactly happened.

“I didn’t really stop him because he got the car and the car was wrecked,” Holland said (transcription via Alex K. Lee). “We caught up to him, we were driving through the neighborhoods. I was driving down the street, some guy comes zooming out the parking lot, some guys running behind him, he’s like, “Yo, he stole my car.” So I was like, ‘I’ve been in quarantine for a week. I didn’t get to finish my fight, so let’s go have a little fun.” I bust a U-turn and start going after the guy, he turns close to the same street that my coach is on, so I’m driving down the street, I’m on the phone with my mom, my mom’s like, ‘It’s probably a repo.’ I’m like, ‘Mom if you see this car, you can tell. It’s not a repo.’ I’m like, ‘I’m gonna hang up and call the cops.’

“Instead of calling the cops, I call my coach, I’m like, ‘Hey, this guy’s driving through your neighborhood and he just stole a car. We should cut him off and we can catch him.’ And he’s like, ‘Alright, bet.’”

The plan worked as they were able to subdue the man but it didn't quite go the way they had hoped. The car was wrecked but at least Kevin Holland got some action in after his fight.

“I hop back in my car, I get to chasing them, we get to following them,” Holland said. “The [suspect] hits the street, boom, hits a little trailer that’s getting pulled with some lawn equipment and stuff on the back of it, so that totals the car. Once he totals the car, the guy gets out. The guy pulls up in front in the truck to kind of block him off. I pull up behind so the guy runs out. He starts going behind instead of going forward. He was going forward at first and then he turns around.

“I pull up, I got my coffee mug, so I’m like this time I’m gonna be prepared. I got my coffee cup. I’m chasing down after him and he reaches down to kind of go like this, I don’t know if he’s saying stop or what? I go like this with the coffee mug, and then I hit him with a little sweep. Get on top, knee on belly, hit him with the little Khabib scarf hold. He was like, ‘I can’t breathe,’ so that’s when I picked him up, put him on the curb. I didn’t want to be like the cop with the Can’t Breathe guy, so I was like f*ck it let’s just put him over here.”

That wasn't the end of it though. The man who had his car stolen wanted to take justice into his own hands.

Kevin Holland had to tell him to back off. He wanted to kick the thief in the face.

“When I had my knee on the belly of the guy, [the owner of the car] was really pissed and he was really pissed and he was running up, he was about to soccer kick the guy while I was holding him down,” Holland said. “So I kind of like hit him in the stomach and was like, ‘Chill, chill, chill. Don’t hit this fool while I got him down. I’m gonna fuck you up if you hit him,’ and he was like, ‘Alright, cool.’

“It was smooth, it wasn’t that bad. I think it was a cool morning overall. I still got to do what I had to do, it kind of slowed me down. I was trying to avoid traffic going that way, so I really didn’t avoid traffic, just ended up being the same amount of time. Just had a little fun in the process. It was nice.”
