Benoît Saint Denis was knocked out by Dustin Poirier on the night of Saturday to Sunday during UFC 299 in Miami. The Frenchman revealed on his social networks that he fought despite a week of antibiotics to fight an infection.
“I only had one round to give you. Sorry to have disappointed you. I will come back stronger, thanks to Dustin for accepting this fight. It was impossible for me not to seize the opportunity of such a fight,” he said.
