Jared Cannonier - Christian Leroy Duncan: Betting Tip (cf 2.57) and bets on the fight

Current form 

Jared Cannonier has long been considered one of the toughest middleweight fighters. He was distinguished by a powerful punch, iron fortitude and the ability to impose a heavy pace on his opponent. However, age is starting to play an increasingly important role, and the last segment of the American's career is developing ambiguously. Almost a year has passed since his previous entry into the octagon. On August 16, 2025, Cannonier met with Michael Page and could not find an answer to the British man's speed and unconventional manner, losing by unanimous decision. Prior to that, the American had managed to return to the winning track vividly, stopping Gregory Rodriguez by technical knockout in the fourth round.

But before that, Jared had serious problems. He lost to Cayo Borrallo on points, and was also defeated by a technical knockout from Nassurdin Imavov. Of course, Cannonier remains a dangerous fighter who is capable of causing trouble for any top-level representative, but at the age of 42, it is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the same pace.

The American has 18 victories on his account: ten of them ended in knockouts, five by judges' decisions, and three more times he won by submission. He also has nine defeats to his credit. Cannonier ranks tenth in the UFC mid-division rankings. In addition, he holds a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and previously became the Alaska Fighting Championship champion.

Current form

Christian Leroy Duncan approaches this confrontation in excellent condition. The Briton is gradually gaining a foothold in the UFC and shows that he is able to compete with serious rivals. His only recent defeat was against Gregory Rodriguez in 2024, but after that he had an impressive streak of four wins in a row. The 30-year-old Duncan looked especially bright in recent fights. In March 2026, he confidently passed Roman Dolidze, winning by unanimous decision. Prior to that, the Briton scored spectacular knockout victories over Marco Tulio and Eric Anders. He also proved to be stronger than Andrey Pulyaev in points.

Duncan's style is perfect for modern MMA. He has excellent speed, a variety of striking techniques and constantly keeps his opponents in suspense. He has 27 wins to his credit: 15 by knockout, six by decision and six by submission. The Briton also has five defeats. Duncan is currently ranked 12th in the UFC middleweight division. In 2022, he became the Cage Warriors champion, successfully defended the title and after that received a contract with the largest organization in the world.
