It looked alright in his last fight.

Curtis just doesn't take easy fights, does he? this should be good

 

[fortheo]

It looked alright in his last fight.

He didn't grapple as much and basically won that one with a jab. He definitely managed his energy better, but I'm not sure if he'll have the same options in this one.

[Question]

I got Curtis, but this is a tricky matchup.
If he beats Viera, that'll be 3 nice prospect wins in a row.

I'm very impressed by him so far.

 

[Fedor_Silva]

Is still think he have a questionable cardio , the guy is build like a gorilla tho , his ground game is perfect but I can’t see him crack a top 10 because of that issue.

 

[Kryptt]

Fun scrap - I'll likely go Curtis.

TASTY!

Both have reasonably good hype, Curtis has been an ace in his UFC run so far, but there's still an expectation that it will come to an end. Rodolfo is a phenom that got embarrassed once, but responded pretty well albeit against low-calibre opposition in Stoltzfus.

Lovely clash of styles, and the result gives us a very solid indication of where they stand - which is the preferred outcome of any fight!

Like it.

Curtis 2nd round tko after losing the first round 10-8

This is very plausible.

 

[TCE]

Curtis KOs him. Should be great while it lasts though.

 

[Jose Beehive]

Curtis FTW! Excited for this one.

 

[Dorkman]

Would be fun to see Curtis win. Guy was kind of an after thought joining the UFC after a long run on the indy's so to speak. Always enjoyable watching an old dog get his chance, and use his wily experience to get a good run going.

 

[LoveMyMMA]

Very interesting fight. Coin toss IMO.
