UFC lightweight Chris “The Problem” Duncan joins David McIntosh Jr for a special live conversation.
From Alloa to the UFC, Duncan’s story is one of grit, sacrifice and relentless self-belief. A former shepherd from Scotland, he fought his way through the regional scene, earned his UFC contract on Dana White’s Contender Series, and has become one of the most compelling Scottish fighters competing on the world stage.
But behind the rise is a story marked by real loss and resilience. On the day of his first fight, Chris’s mum passed away - a moment that would shape not only his journey as a fighter, but the person he became outside the cage.
In this intimate live conversation, David McIntosh Jr sits down with Chris to explore the full story behind the fighter: the early years, the setbacks, the grief, the mindset, the pressure of competing at the highest level, and what it really takes to build a life around chasing something most people would never dare attempt.
Expect a raw, funny and inspiring night of stories from inside and outside the Octagon, followed by an audience Q&A.
