Orolbay has a record of 4-1 in the UFC, and in his recent fights, he achieved two finishes: one of them was a kimura submission against Tofik Musaev, and in the other, he knocked out Jack Hermansson. However, in his last bout, the 27-year-old athlete suffered his first defeat in the organization, losing to Mateusz Rebecki by split decision.
Curtis, who is 38 years old, won his last fight against Max Griffin by split decision, thus ending a two-fight losing streak against Brendan Allen and Roman Kopylov. His current record in the UFC stands at 6-4-1, including one no contest.
It is worth noting that Orolbay previously competed in the lightweight division but has now moved up to welterweight, while Curtis is fighting for the second time in his new weight class after transitioning from middleweight.
