English middleweight and former Cage Warriors star Christian Leroy Duncan has drawn his biggest assignment yet.
Duncan (13-2) is set to face Georgian powerhouse Roman Dolidze (15-4) as part of next year’s UFC London card, set for the O2 Arena in London, England on March 21, 2026.
News of the booking was first reported by MMA Mania’s Alex Behunin.
Now 30, Duncan is coming off three straight victories inside the octagon, including one over former LFA champion Eryk “Ya Boi” Anders. He’s 6-2 in the promotion overall, and looking to crack the top 15 of the 185lb division.
Dolidze had been on a three-fight win streak of his own, but saw that snapped in his last outing case off a loss to surging contender Anthony “Fluffy” Hernandez. The Georgian sits in the #12 spot at middleweight, meaning a win for CLD will almost certainly land him a number next to his name.
This year’s UFC London card will mark Christian Leroy Duncan’s fourth time fighting in his native England since joining the UFC in March of 2023. He’s fought twice in London, and once in Manchester, since jumping from Cage Warriors to the big stage.
UFC London is expected to be headlined by a key featherweight bout featuring Movsar Evloev taking on Lerone Murphy, a fight that carries clear title implications.
