Benoît Saint-Denis will fight on May 18 in Paris... but not in MMA

He left us with an honorable defeat against the American Dustin Poirier on March 9 at UFC 299 in Miami. A month and a half later, Benoît Saint-Denis announced, this Friday on his YouTube channel, the date of his next fight. He will be present on May 18 for a “grappling” at the Grand Dojo in Paris. This discipline, which uses all ground combat techniques, is similar to wrestling. “You know me, I don't like to wait and I like to be active. Professional grappling, the organization is called ADXC and it will happen in Paris on May 18 at the Grand Dojo,” he said in his video.

If “BSD” has not indicated who he will fight against, his opponent has revealed himself. This is Arman Tsarukyan. The Armenian revealed in Michael Bisping's podcast that he would challenge the Frenchman: “I'm going to Miami on Sunday and I'm going to fight a lot because I'm going to compete on May 18 against Benoit Saint Denis. It will be a grappling fight, there will be five rounds, each round will last three minutes, and I have to start training.

A big name will rise up in front of Saint-Denis. Indeed, Tsarukyan is the number 1 contender for the -70kg title in the UFC. Feared and formidable, the young fighter does not underestimate his opponent. “For me too (it will be difficult), he knows grappling but for me it is more advantageous because I grew up with wrestling,” he concluded.
