Chris Curtis gets replaced by Raul Rosas jr.
Raul Rosas Jr. has made an impression on fans, in the only appearance that he made was against J.Perrin at UFC 282. Rosas Jr. has had a 7-0 pro-MMA record, and he is expected by fans to continue his winning run. In his last fight, the 18-year-old had submitted Perrin in the first round.
Chris Curtis, being a ranked fighter, will feel he had an opportunity lost, but Rosas Jr. will take UFC 287 as an important fight for his career. Sean Strickland and Kelvin Gastelum are looking poised to take on each other in another developing scenario.
