During UFC Fight Night in Las Vegas, Saint-Denis forced his opponent to give up in the first round, by submission on a choke on the ground. The Frenchman, who now has 11 wins for a single defeat, is hoping for a fight during the UFC evening, the most prestigious MMA league in the world, scheduled for September 2 in Paris at the Accor Arena in Bercy.
The UFC has not yet unveiled the posters, but cited the names of three French fighters in its press release: Ciryl Gane, Nassourdine Imavov and Manon Fiorot. The UFC’s first visit to France, on September 3, 2022, was a great success with the victory of the five French fighters in an electric and jam-packed Bercy.
