Joel Alvarez and Benoit Saint-Denis train together in France for upcoming bouts

Joel Alvarez and Benoit Saint-Denis have begun a joint training camp in Bayonne, France, under the coaching of Nicolas Ott. The two lightweights were scheduled to fight each other a year ago, but the bout never materialized. Now they are helping each other prepare for their respective upcoming fights. Alvarez is set to face Yaroslav Amosov at UFC 328 on May 9. Saint-Denis does not yet have a fight announced, though Alvarez suggested that the Frenchman may be preparing for an opponent with a similar style to his own.
