Yoel Alvarez and Benoit Saint-Denis Begin Joint Training Camp in France

Yoel Alvarez and Benoit Saint-Denis have started a joint training camp in Bayonne, France, under the guidance of coach Nicolas Ott. The two lightweights were scheduled to fight each other a year ago, but the bout never materialized. Now they are working together to help prepare each other for upcoming fights. Alvarez is scheduled to face Yaroslav Amosov at UFC 328 on May 9th, while Saint-Denis does not yet have an announced opponent. Alvarez mentioned that Saint-Denis reached out to arrange the training partnership and suggested his French counterpart may face someone with a similar style.
