Curtis: "I love fighting more than I love making love."

UFC American middleweight Chris Curtis explained why he agreed to take the fight with Brendan Allen on short notice.

The meeting of these fighters will be the main event of UFC Fight Night 240, which will take place on April 6 in Las Vegas, USA.

"I really love money. And I'm willing to do terrible things for money. Plus, I love to fight. I love doing it more than anything else. I said it once, I'm willing to say it again now - I love fighting more than I love making love. That's what I do for a living.

Plus, they're giving me a guy who's ranked higher than me as an opponent - you can't turn that down," MMA Junkie quoted Curtis as saying.
