Chris Curtis’ welterweight debut was a success on Saturday night at UFC Nashville.
It was a slow-starting round for Curtis, who suffered both a low blow and a cut due to an accidental clash of heads in the first five minutes. Still, that didn’t stop ‘The Action Man’ from flashing a smile while trying to walk down his opponent in the closing seconds of the stanza.

Things really started to heat up in the second as both fighters swung big, looking for the fight-ending blow.
