Recall that during the broadcast of the fight between the American and the Frenchman, such an opinion was expressed by the famous commentator Joe Rogan.
"I reviewed the fight last night with my wife when we returned to Louisiana. Joe Rogan said I was exhausted and tired times five. Bro, I'm not tired. I have some of the best cardio in MMA. I can put on a five-round fight at a high pace. I can't believe he said that.
I thought I was going to have to break him down, wear him down some more, but I caught him in the middle of the exchange when his chin was open. The timing of that punch was just perfect to put his lights out," BJ Penn quoted Puryear as saying.
On March 9 at UFC 299 in Miami, USA, Puryear knocked out Saint-Denis in the second round.
