Renato Moicano thinks Benoit Saint Denis needs a change in training scenery if he wants to snap his two-fight losing skid after UFC Fight Night 243.
After scoring a second-round doctor’s stoppage TKO win over Saint Denis (13-3 MMA, 6-2 UFC) on Saturday at Accor Arena in Paris, Moicano (20-5-1 MMA, 12-5 UFC) extended an olive branch for his most recent opponent to come into his gym at American Top Team in South Florida.
“I invite Benoit Saint Denis to come to our gym, to train with us and I can guarantee he’s going to be another fighter,” Moicano told reporters at the UFC Fight Night 243 post-fight news conference. “He needs to get out of his comfort zone in my opinion. But I think he’s a great fighter and he’s still young. The problem is, they give him Dustin Poirier and ‘Money’ Moicano in a row. We are a different level now. But I think eventually he’s going to get there.”
