Mateusz Rebecki vs. Chris Duncan round-by-round updates: UFC Vegas 108: Mateusz Rebecki vs. Chris Duncan: Live round-by-round updates

Mateusz Rebecki will return to action at UFC Vegas 108 with far more experience, a punishing ground game, and a recent war with Myktybek Orolbai. The Polish powerhouse is 4-1 in the UFC.

His blend of top control and grinding pace is overwhelming when he’s on his game. But Chris Duncan isn’t here to wrestle for fifteen minutes. He’s riding back-to-back submission wins, including a sharp finish over Jordan Vucenic, and looks far more confident than he did early in his UFC run.

The Scotsman has cleaned up his striking entries, manages distance better now, and isn’t afraid to mix things up when needed. The biggest question heading into this fight is where it takes place.

If Rebecki drags Duncan into deep water and gets top position early, this could get suffocating fast. If Duncan can keep it upright and work his power shots, Rebecki might be in for another firefight.
