Key factor

Allen's submission-and-control game, shown in 11:39 of control plus a submission against Reinier de Ridder

AI reasoning

Allen (27-7) has won three straight, including the single most dominant grappling performance between these two: 11:39 of control time and a submission of Reinier de Ridder. He also posted high-volume wins over Marvin Vettori (111 significant strikes, 3 takedowns) and Edmen Shahbazyan (89 significant strikes, 1 takedown). Duncan (15-2) is equally hot with wins over Jared Cannonier, Roman Dolidze and Marco Tulio, but those wins came with minimal control time (2:16, 1:08, 1:10). Allen's demonstrated ability to accumulate control and finish on the mat is the clearest differentiator.
