Yoel Alvarez and Benoit Saint Denis train together in France

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 that bout never materialized. Now they're working together to prepare for their respective fights. Alvarez will face Yaroslav Amosov at UFC 328 on May 9, while Saint Denis does not yet have an announced opponent. Alvarez revealed that Saint Denis initiated the collaboration and suggested he may be preparing for an opponent with a similar style.
