St. Denis made its first statement since the loss to Moicano

French UFC lightweight Benoit Saint-Denis summarized his fight with Brazilian Renato Moicano, which ended in a technical knockout loss for him in the second round (doctor's stoppage).

"It just wasn't my day. Our sport is very tough. I want to say thank you all for your support. Very proud that I was allowed to represent France in this fight. Respect to my opponent for agreeing to compete on foreign soil. In life, God provides challenges, on par with which this defeat is absolutely worthless, so it's okay," wrote Saint-Denis in Instagram.

Recall that the fight between Saint-Denis and Moicano took place last weekend at UFC Fight Night 243 in Paris.
