Another Cage Warriors champion is UFC bound, as recently Christian Leroy Duncan announced he’s headed to the Octagon.
Duncan was scheduled to defend Cage Warriors’ middleweight belt against Jesse Taylor this past Saturday. But, after Taylor was involved in a hit-and-run accident, the bout was called off.
During the broadcast for Cage Warriors 148, the 27-year-old Duncan announced he’s vacating the middleweight title, as result of signing with the UFC. Duncan also reported he hopes to fight at the UFC’s March 18th card in London, England.
Professionally, Duncan (7-0) has fought exclusively for Cage Warriors to date. The British fighter has recorded finishes in six of his seven victories.
