Kevin Holland will replace an injured Darren Till and will fight Jack Hermannsson on December 5th.

Till announced on social media on Friday that he is out of his bout against Hermannsson due to an undisclosed injury.
Hermansson Is A Massive Test For Holland
If Trail Blazer can pull off the win on December 5th it will skyrocket the already rising star.
