VIDEO. MMA: “You’re cut on the foot, you don’t have the right to say I’m stopping, what a flop!”, the shock declarations of the Saint-Denis clan after the Doumbè-Baki fight

Benoit Saint-Denis n’a pas été tendre envers Cédric Doumbé. MAXPPP – bonnaud guillaume

"Flop", "Pire chose qui puisse arriver au MMA en France", les images de Benoit Saint-Denis et son clan réagissant de manière crue à la fin de combat entre Doumbé et Baki depuis Miami ont déjà fait le tour de la toile.

These are images that shocked the MMA world. The end of the fight at PFL Paris at the Accor Arena, between Cédric Doumbè and Baysangur "Baki" Chamsoudinov, arrested following repeated complaints from "The Best", had shocked more than one, including another fighter.

In Miami, for his planned fight at UFC 299 against Dustin Poirier, Benoit Saint-Denis did not intend to miss a second of the French MMA event. In front of his TV, and with his clan, the ex-member of the armed forces couldn't believe his eyes when the fight was stopped.

Of incomprehension and disappointment

The hype was great when the fight was announced, as Doumbè and Baki had managed to raise interest to a level almost never seen for MMA in France. After two balanced rounds, Doumbè complained to the referee for the first time. "He can't choose to stop the fight whenever he wants, you're cut in the foot you’have no right to say I’stop" s’then insurgent Saint-Denis from his sofa.

– "Quel flop…"
– "C’est le pire truc pour le MMA français…"

A reaction once again highlighting the ludicrous nature of the situation, when we know that the seven-time world kickboxing champion at Glory did not, at any time, want to stop the fight . "The splinter you remove" s’even someone close to BSD was surprised, demonstrating the public’s incomprehension at the premature end of the confrontation.

Worst thing that could happen to French MMA

Disappointment then took over among the Saint-Denis clan with "worst thing that could happen to French MMA", " what a flop"… A result which will not do any good for the image of sport in France explains the BSD coach "It's only in France that you see stuff like that". Concluded with remarks relating to the sportsman, with a fight which, ultimately, did not know how to respond to the hype that it generated explains Saint-Denis& nbsp;: "It’wasn't a great fight".
