Christian Leroy Duncan delivered one of the most brutal knockouts of 2025 in his main card opener against Marco Tulio UFC Vegas 111.
Duncan came out aggressive almost immediately, catching Tulio with a clean spinning elbow that broke open the bridge of his opponent’s nose. With less than a minute left in the first round, ‘CLD’ hit an overswing, allowing Tulio to score a late takedown.
However, it was Duncan who would end the round in a dominant position, taking Tulio back and fishing for a late submission.
Tulio held his ground in the second round and appeared to catch ‘CLD’ with a shot that caused some blood to leak from Duncan’s left eye. It had a noticeable impact on Duncan, who repeatedly winced and tried to wipe his eye. A replay later showed that it was a jab from Tulio that caused the damage, and not an eye poke.
Despite the setback, Duncan never backed down and delivered a booming, spinning fist that wobbled Tulio. With his opponent compromised, ‘CLD’ moved in and connected with a brutal right hand that knocked Tulio down and eliminated him.
Official result: Christian Leroy Duncan def. Marco Tulio via KO (right hand) at 3:20 of round 2.
