Benoit Saint-Denis plots future fight with Charles Oliveira ahead of UFC 299 return: ‘I want to submit him’

UFC lightweight Benoit Saint-Denis sets his sights on battling the division’s biggest game in their own arena.

In just six UFC fights, Saint-Denis now finds himself facing off with No.3 ranked Dustin Poirier and one win away from the very peak of the sport. What makes it even more impressive is Saint-Denis only started training in 2017, a year in which Poirier would defeat both Jim Miller and Anthony Pettis.

However, this gap in experience does not phase Saint-Denis in the slightest, already feels like he is able to beat the very best that 155lb has to offer.
