LAS VEGAS – Chris Duncan was in redemption mode heading into his second appearance at Dana White’s Contender Series.
But early on in his main event against Charlie Campbell on Tuesday, he was in survival mode. Duncan (9-1) was having some issues with Campbell (6-2), to put it mildly. Campbell was highly touted and a 2-1 betting favorite.
But Duncan worked through an eye poke that he said helped Campbell land some heavy uppercuts and knees to put him on the canvas, and when it looked like Campbell was close to putting him away, Duncan landed a crisp right to the jaw.
