Both Kurtis Sprung and Styles and Emma wowed judges and fans during the qualifiers round. Both performances were an instant hit among the judges for their versatility and elegance. So, when they were pitted against each other during the duels round of 'World of Dance', we knew that the judges had their job cut out for them. Both the competitors were extremely nice to each other, unlike the other performers who were sassy towards their competitors.  

Kurtis was chosen to go first, he performed a beautiful piece which depicted his feelings towards his girlfriend Nigel. In his green room interview, he explained how they broke up for a few days when they were younger, and those were the worst days for both of them. They soon got back together, but Kurtis felt that he owed her an apology for that experience and decided to do it through his beautiful dance routine. The routine was extremely light and smooth but was filled with raw emotions.

After Kurtis' performance, Styles and Emma took the stage. The duo's performance can best be described as elegant. Ne-Yo remarked how he felt like he was underdressed and needed to wear a tuxedo while watching their graceful ballet routine. While Jennifer Lopez and Derek described it as a delightful experience and couldn't stop praising them for how elegant and delightful it is to watch them perform their ballet routine. 

Although the judges appeared to have loved both performances, they eventually picked Kurtis as the winner. Fans were unhappy with the judges' decision and felt that Styles and Emma should have gone through the next round. A fan tweeted, "Styles and Emma should have been picked. #WorldofDance." Another fan wrote, "#WorldofDance WTH!!! Styles&Emma clearly won this round!! That guy is mad wackkkkkkkk."

"#Worldofdance have to say I disagreed with the judges on 2 of their choices tonight. I think The Rise and Styles & Emma deserved to go through," expressed a fan. Another fan commented, "#WorldofDance JLo!!! How can you not choose Styles and Emma??  " "Styles & Emma are way better. Sorry not sorry. #WorldOfDance," declared a fan.

'World of Dance' season 4 airs every Tuesday at 10/9c on NBC.
