Kevin Holland, UFC star and real-life superhero, informs TMZ Sports he’s done conserving individuals near his house in Texas … after police officers in the location jammed him up for small traffic offenses!
You might remember, the 29-year-old fighter ran the risk of life and limb on (not one however) 2 celebrations within the in 2015. In October, Kevin stopped an alleged carjacker, ferreting out, and holding the potential burglar till cops got here and arrested the male.
Then, simply a couple of months later on, Holland risked his own life when he stopped an alleged gun-wielding man who pulled a weapon at a regional sushi area.
However, Holland — who’s combating Daniel Rodriguez at UFC 279 on September 10 (more on that later) — says regional police just recently provided him a tough time for a traffic-related occurrence, so he’s done doing their tasks.
“I got pulled over one night on my way to the airport, right, and they were like, ‘we gotta book you., I’m like, ‘book me for what?’ They’re like ‘for tickets,’ I’m like ‘tickets? How much are the tickets? I got the money right now, I’ll pay you.'”
Regrettably, they dragged Kevin down to the station … prior to lastly letting him pay (he’s a star professional athlete — he’s got the money). It took hours prior to he was let go.
“I’m there for like 3, 4 hours — this is way back on my birthday. I missed the flight, you know, I was picking someone up from the airport,” Holland says, including, “So, they gotta Uber to the house and I’m like bro, I just literally stopped a shooting a week ago and y’all gonna book me for some tickets?”
Safe detainment aside, we asked Holland if regional authorities ever honored him for his truly brave acts.
“No. They give you one of these (flips middle finger)! Stay out of our way kid!”
However, Kevin continued, stating it was never ever about acknowledgment.
“The good thing is I don’t do it for the medal or anything like that. It’s just when you see something bad going on, the right thing to do is the right thing to do, but I ain’t gonna lie, it was funny as hell when [the arrest] happened. All my boys were like, ‘this why I ain’t doing s**t good, I ain’t helpin’ nobody.'”
Fortunately is as long as you’re not in the Ft. Worth location … Kevin says he’s got your back.
“I ain’t doing nothing to Saginaw no more, man. I’ll help everybody else anywhere else. If you in Saginaw, I ain’t helping you.”
