Background and Quotes
Pimblett was outpointed by Justin Gaethje earlier this year in a thrilling clash. Gaethje went on to win the interim lightweight title and later defeated Ilia Topuria to become undisputed champion. Pimblett now eyes a rematch but must first overcome Saint Denis, who is on a winning streak.
Speaking about his opponent, Pimblett said: "I expect Benoit to come out and try and take my head off. He's one of the best lightweights in the world. He's going to come out and try and take my head off, but I think I proved against Justin Gaethje that no one's taking my head off. I'm a Scouser, we don't get knocked out."
