Kurt Holobaugh expecting a “wild fight” against Alexander Hernandez at UFC Vegas 104: “It’s going to be fun” | BJPenn.com

Entering UFC Vegas 104, Kurt Holobaugh is the underdog, which he isn’t surprised by. He knows Hernandez is a much more known fighter, but he still has confidence in his skills.

Holobaugh believes both men will have moments in the fight, but he does think he can catch Hernandez in a submission if they start scrambling on the ground.

“I can say I’m going to knock him out, he can say he’s going to knock me out,” Holobaugh added. “We are both high-level, if one of us wants to finish, we are going to have to do a good job setting up and luring some traps, and make whatever shot we are throwing land. It’s hard ot preodct, I want a finish, I don’t care how I get it. I’m expecting him to wrestle and it to be a full mixed martial arts fight, and I think I can get a submission in a wrestling exchange. It’s going to be fun.”

If Holobaugh wins, the goal is to get on the rumored Louisiana card later this year against another big name opponent.

“I think it propels me up the rankings, it’s a big fight and a big name, it would be the biggest win of my career. I’m just looking forward to propelling my career,” Holobaugh said.
