VIDEO | Chris Curtis pulls up on internet trolls at UFC 289: “They never keep the same energy”

UFC middleweight contender Chris Curtis decided to have some fun earlier today.

‘The Action Man’ has been out of action since his high-profile clash with Kelvin Gastelum in April. At UFC 287, the two middleweights put on a show, going back and forth for three rounds. At the end of the 15-minute contest, it was Gastelum who got the nod by unanimous decision.

For his part, Curtis stated his plans to appeal the loss due to a missed headbutt in the fight. Nonetheless, the bout wasn’t overturned, and the middleweight contender is set to return this Saturday. At UFC 289, Curtis will face Nassourdine Imavov. ‘Russian Sniper’ is coming off a decision loss to Sean Strickland in January.

Nonetheless, Chris Curtis decided to have some fun during UFC 289 fight week. On Twitter, the middleweight released a video, where he was sitting next to some internet trolls who’s previously mocked him online. To his credit, Curtis took the whole thing in stride and made some jokes with the trolls about the situation.
