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

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