Christian Leroy Duncan eyes Dricus Du Plessis — or a straight title shot — after UFC Vegas 122: ‘I don’t see why not’

Christian Leroy Duncan is looking to secure a title opportunity following his upcoming main event bout against Brendan Allen at UFC Vegas 112. Duncan believes a strong victory could propel him past Nassourdine Imavov to challenge Sean Strickland for the middleweight championship.

If a title fight does not materialize immediately, the British fighter is targeting a future matchup against Dricus Du Plessis, potentially in London during early 2027. Duncan remains focused on the immediate challenge of facing Allen, a veteran who has recently found success in both the octagon and grappling competitions.
