Welterweight veterans reportedly set for UFC Dallas clash
The
Ultimate Fighting Championship’s first event of 2027 is
gradually taking shape.
Geoff Neal and Chris Curtis are reportedly set to collide at UFC Dallas on Jan. 16 at American Airlines Center.
According to Marcel Dorff, Neal and Curtis will clash at UFC Dallas, the UFC’s first event of 2027.
Neal (16-8) has dropped four of his last five bouts, with the only win coming against Rafael dos Anjos due to an injury. While “Handz of Steel” was scheduled to fight Chidi Njokuani at UFC 330 this past August, he pulled out due to an undisclosed injury.
Meanwhile, Curtis (32-13, 1 NC) has lost three of his last four bouts. “The Action Man” is coming off a decision defeat to Myktykbek Orolbai.
