Curtis is coming off a UFC 289 matchup against Nassourdine Imavov that was ruled a no contest 3:04 into the second round due to an accidental clash of heads. Prior to that, “Action Man” dropped a three-round verdict to Kelvin Gastelum at UFC 287. The 35-year-old Xtreme Couture member is 4-2 with one no contest in the Octagon and 30-10 as a professional overall.
