Christian Leroy Duncan faces first five-round UFC main event as
\nBrendan Allen targets sustained pressure<\/h2>\n

Allen is on a three-fight winning streak and welcomes the chance to
\nextend it against an aggressive opponent.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love guys that want to come kill,\u201d Allen said in a pre-fight
\ninterview. \u201cBut the question with him is, are you willing to be
\nkilled? I am. I’m willing to be killed. That’s just how I fight.
\nThat’s all I know how to do. When those lights come on, and they
\nsay, \u2018Are you ready? Are you ready?\u2019 That’s all I know how to do is
\njust go try to kill.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan is riding a five-fight winning streak but has never reached
\na fourth round in his professional career. Allen, who has competed
\nin several bouts scheduled for five rounds, believes the momentum
\nwill swing in his favor as the fight progresses.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I build as the fight goes on and he does not build as the
\nfight goes on,\u201d Allen added.<\/p>\n
