Alvarez and Saint-Denis training together in France ahead of UFC 328

Yoel Alvarez and Benoit Saint-Denis have begun a joint training camp in Bayonne, France, under coach Nicolas Ott. The two fighters were scheduled to face each other a year ago, but the bout never materialized. Alvarez is preparing for his fight against Yaroslav Amosov at UFC 328 on May 9, while Saint-Denis does not yet have an announced bout. Alvarez revealed that Saint-Denis contacted him to arrange training together, and believes the Frenchman may have an upcoming fight against an opponent with a similar style to his own, though Saint-Denis has not disclosed details.
