LONDON – Chris Duncan made a pretty big stir this past August when he hammered his way into the UFC.
Duncan took out Charlie Campbell in quick fashion on Dana White’s Contender Series. Now the Scottish lightweight is set for his official promotional debut at UFC 286 in London, where it will feel like a home fight for him. Duncan (9-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) meets Omar Morales (11-3 MMA, 3-3 UFC) on the ESPNews-broadcast prelims Saturday at The O2.
“Since probably 2018, the only dream and the only goal I’ve ever had was to get to the UFC,” Duncan said at Wednesday’s UFC 286 media day. “Now that that’s happened, I’ve had to change my goals and had to change my admirations, and I’m looking forward to conquering them, as well – small steps, build myself up the ladder.
