Video: UFC Fight Night 290 full card faceoffs with Allen vs. Duncan

The UFC’s middleweight division takes center stage this weekend as Brendan Allen returns to action in the main event of UFC Vegas 122, set to face rising prospect Christian Leroy Duncan. The bout, scheduled for Saturday, October 10, 2026, at Meta Apex in Las Vegas, marks Duncan’s first UFC headliner and a pivotal clash that could reshape the division’s contender landscape.

Allen, a seasoned veteran, has been tasked with defending his position amid recent shifts in matchmaking, while Duncan enters the fight as a dynamic challenger eager to prove himself against a proven competitor. The event also saw weigh-in drama earlier this week, including a significant miss by Ismael Bonfim, though the Allen vs.

Duncan bout remained unaffected by the late adjustments.
