The first fight for UFC Paris has been announced with Benoit Saint-Denis going round with Renato Moicano.
SportsBetting.ag made Saint-Denis a -300 favorite initially (Moicano +250), but the odds have since moved in Moicano’s favor. Here are the current numbers:
Renato Moicano +185
Benoit Saint-Denis -220
Saint-Denis (13-2, 1NC) saw a five-fight win streak stopped at UFC 299 in March, when he was quickly knocked out by Dustin Poirier. During his five-fight win streak, he had victories against Matt Frevola and Thiago Moises.
Saint-Denis said he was a 'shadow of himself' against 'The Diamond' in that most recent loss, blaming a staph infection for the poor performance.
"Saturday, I had the honor of crossing iron with the legend @dustinpoirier. I fought completely dehydrated," Saint-Denis wrote in French on Instagram. "Frustration is huge but it's hard to judge when to cancel such an opportunity. I'm going to get back to work and fix some things that can't be neglected and never give you a shadow of myself again. God tests us in so many ways, I’m blessed to be well surrounded and have tremendous support."
Additionally, former UFC champ Aljamain Sterling is lobbying for a bout against Diego Lopes at UFC 306. There are now odds on that potential matchup at the Sphere in Las Vegas. Here are those numbers:
Aljamain Sterling +130
Diego Lopes -150
