Chris Curtis had earlier shared his disappointment at not being included in the UFC 287 main card.
Not gonna lie, that bout order is completely fucked. One of the best cards of the year and I get bounced from the main card for a child? I fought on short notice. Have take on whoever and gone 4-1 to get ranked and I get bounced for a kid with one fight? Yeah I'm salty as fuck https://t.co/K9tgnZ28Jl
