UFC 334 тэмцээний үеэр болсон Кевин Холланд болон Урос Медик нарын тулаан шүүгчдийн маргаантай шийдвэрээр тэнцээгээр өндөрлөсөн нь олны анхаарлыдыг татлаа.
Нью-Йорк хотын Madison Square Garden ордонд болсон тулаанд Кевин Холланд эхний хоёр раундад илт давуу байдалтай байв. Тэрээр Медикийг хүнд цохилтоор унагаж, цохилтын тоогоор илүүрхэхийн зэрэгцээ хэд хэдэн удаа “D’Arce” боолт хийхээр оролдсон юм. Хоёрдугаар раундад Медик бүсэлхийгээс доош хоёр удаа цохилт хийсний улмаас нэг оноо хасуулсан ч шүүгчид энэ раундыг түүний талд шийдсэн нь гайхшрал төрүүлж байна.
Эцэст нь шүүгчдийн бүрэлдэхүүн 29-27, 28-28, 28-28 гэсэн оноогоор тулааныг тэнцээ гэж үзлээ. UFC-ийн тэргүүн Дэйна Уайт тулааны дараах хэвлэлийн бага хурлын үеэр Кевин Холланд ялалт байгуулсан нь тодорхой байсан гэдгийг онцлоод, энэхүү шийдвэрийг утгагүй зүйл хэмээн нэрлэв. Тэрээр өөрийн хүү хүртэл тулааныг үзээд яаж ийм үр дүн гарч байгааг гайхан мессеж бичсэнийг дурджээ.
Кевин Холланд сүүлийн зургаан тулаандаа 3-2-1 гэсэн амжилттай байгаа бөгөөд удахгүй гэрээгээ дуусгаж зодог тайлах төлөвлөгөөтэй байгаагаа мэдэгдсэн. Харин Урос Медикийн хувьд энэ жил Жефф Нилийг нокаутаар ялж, эх орондоо ялалт байгуулсан амжилттайгаар 2026 оныг үдэж байна. Шүүгчдийн энэхүү шийдвэр нь ММА спортын шүүлттэй холбоотой маргааныг дахин нэг удаа сөхлөө.

Boy, oh boy, the judges were watching a different fight.
Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight fan favorite Kevin Holland and knockout artist Uros Medic somehow fought to a majority draw at UFC 334 last night (Sat., Nov. 14, 2026) inside iconic Madison Square Garden in New York City.
The fight was officially scored 29-27 for Medic and 28-28 twice.
While the action was somewhat competitive, Holland clearly won the first two rounds.
“Trailblazer” dropped Medic, outlanded him 19-9 in significant strikes and threatened with multiple tight D’Arce chokes during the opening frame. Holland then held a 20-7 advantage in significant strikes in the second round, which also saw Medic deducted one point after landing two low blows.
Somehow, all three judges scored Round 2 for Medic before the deduction, turning their respective 10-9 scores into 9-9 rounds.
Judges Chris Lee and Michael Bell awarded Holland the first round and Medic the third, resulting in matching 28-28 cards. David Bruce, meanwhile, gave Medic all three rounds—including the first—producing a baffling 29-27 score for the Serbian.
Media scorecards overwhelmingly favored Holland, while any fan watching with a functioning set of eyeballs probably reached the same conclusion.
UFC CEO Dana White was equally baffled.
“That decision is absolutely insane to me,” White told reporters during the UFC 334 post-fight press conference (watch here). “I’m embarrassed to even tell you what happened to me tonight. We have all these people here for business, so I’m talking to all of these guys. Clearly, Kevin Holland won that fight.”
“One of my sons was flying here but got stuck in Cincinnati because of the outage,” White continued. “He texted and said, ‘How the f—k did Kevin Holland lose that fight?’ And I went, ‘What?’ I didn’t even know he lost that fight because there was no way he lost that fight.”
Technically, Holland did not lose—but White’s point was clear.
Holland may only receive a draw on his official record, but in the court of public opinion, he won that fight.
“Trailblazer” is now 3-2-1 across his last six appearances and ends 2026 with a 1-0-1 record. Holland also revealed during UFC 334 fight week that he recently signed what he expects to be his final UFC contract and intends to retire after completing it.
As for Medic, the draw capped an otherwise terrific 2026 that included a disgusting knockout of Geoff Neal (watch highlights) and his first UFC main event victory in his home country.
Unfortunately, the awful scorecards will likely be forgotten by this time next week—if not sooner.
The official result will remain, the judges will continue working and nothing meaningful will be done about it.
