Moicano (20-7-1 MMA, 12-7 UFC) aims to snap a two-fight skid. Four straight wins and a last-second Arman Tsarukyan withdrawal landed him a title fight vs. Islam Makhachev in January 2025. However, Moicano was promptly submitted in Round 1. He returned in June and lost a unanimous decision to Beneil Dariush.
Duncan (15-2 MMA, 6-1 UFC) is on a roll with four straight victories including two performance-bonus showings against Bolaji Oki and Mateusz Rebecki. He most recently competed in December when he submitted Terrance McKinney in 2:30.
