Weaknesses:

🇬🇧 Chris Duncan – “The Problem”
Strengths:

Tactical Matchup
Rebecki’s Path to Victory:
Close the distance, secure takedowns, and dominate with top control. Avoid Duncan’s guillotine traps and wear him down with pressure and ground work.
Duncan’s Path to Victory:
Use reach and footwork to keep Rebecki at bay, counter with short hooks, and capitalize on takedown attempts with his guillotine. Leg kicks and early aggression could disrupt Rebecki’s rhythm.
This is a stylistic clash between Rebecki’s pressure wrestling and Duncan’s opportunistic striking and submissions. While Duncan is dangerous, Rebecki’s experience, durability, and grappling edge should carry him through a hard-fought battle.
