UFC Fight Night: Allen vs. Duncan · Oct 10, 2026
DarkHorse Pick
Brendan Allen to win · Decision
Brendan Allen's 27-7 record demonstrates significantly more professional experience than Duncan's 15-2, with Allen having faced stiffer competition at the UFC middleweight level. This is a 5-round non-title fight, which favors Allen's proven cardio and grappling depth over the full distance. Without market odds to anchor expectations, Allen's experience edge and well-rounded skill set make him the more reliable pick to control pace and volume through five rounds. Duncan's lower loss count is notable but reflects less exposure to elite competition.
