Chris Curtis is set for a 2025 return to the UFC octagon.
Multiple people with knowledge of the promotions plans confirmed to MMA Fighting that Curtis will face Roman Kopylov in a middleweight bout at the UFC’s Fight Night event on Jan. 11 at a location and venue yet to be announced.
Curtis is set to make his 10th promotional appearance and looks to bounce back in the win column following a split decision loss in a Fight of the Year contender against Brendan Allen at UFC Vegas 90 in April. “The Action Man” returns to action after suffering a torn hamstring in the fight, and was slated to face Kevin Holland on Saturday’s UFC 307 card before being forced to withdraw.
After having his four-fight win streak snapped by Anthony Hernandez at UFC 298 in February, Kopylov returned to the win column three months later with a split decision win against Cesar Almeida at UFC 301. During his previous winning streak, Kopylov finished all four of his opponents.
