St. Denis: "My dream is to defeat Makhachev and become UFC champion"

UFC French lightweight Benoit Saint-Denis has named his immediate goal in mixed martial arts.

"My dream in MMA? To defeat Islam Makhachev and become UFC champion. As for fighting for the BMF belt or moving to another weight, such questions appear, as I think, after winning the belt of the absolute champion. Right now I'm concentrating on lightweight. At 70 kg I feel comfortable," said Saint-Denis on his YouTube channel.

Recall that on September 28 at UFC Fight Night 243 in Paris, France, Saint-Denis will fight Renato Moicano.
