Former UFC interim lightweight champion American Dustin Porier made a bold statement ahead of his upcoming bout with Frenchman Benoit Saint-Denis.
The confrontation between these fighters will be the co-main event of the UFC 299 tournament, which will take place on the night of March 10 in Miami, USA.
"I think I'm going to knockout Benoit. If I have to fight long, if it's a tough fight between two fighting dogs, I'm not used to that. But I will knockout Saint-Denis," Puryear told ESPN.
As a reminder, the upcoming show will be headlined by a lightweight division title rematch between champion Sean O'Malley and Marlon Vera.
