What show ! This Sunday morning, Frenchman Benoît Saint-Denis challenged American Dustin Poirier in Miami, at UFC 299. A crash test for someone aiming for the top of his category and the belt. From the first seconds of the fight, the Frenchman did more than well by putting constant pressure on the American champion, who was in a bad position at the end of the first round.
K.O. from the second round
But when you have entered the cage more than 30 times, you don’t give up that easily and in the second round, Poirier countered the Frenchman with class at mid-distance. A sequence in English which sent “God Of War” to the mat and offered a significant victory to Poirier.
The Frenchman probably paid for a strategy that was a bit too offensive against an opponent of this caliber. Poirier’s experience made the difference in the management of the fight, even if he lost the first round in particular due to the passages on the ground perfectly controlled by the Frenchman.
