Holobaugh was one of five winners to come out of the first installment of Dana White’s Contender Series, after putting an abrupt end to Matt Bessette’s (22-8) seven-fight streak. The first-round knockout not only added a fourth win to Holobaugh’s (18-4) current victorious run, but also earned him re-entry into the octagon after a single 2013 showing. Kolobaugh, who first came into the UFC off a Strikeforce decision loss to Pat Healy, was cut after an unsuccessful showing opposite Steven Siler at UFC 159.
