Ground game
Chain wrestling and submissions are a primary weapon. 11 tapouts and 4.2 TD/15 put opponents on the fence or the mat.
Punching agility
Hands move. High clean output for the age band — combinations come in bursts, not long-arm pawing.
Durability
Standard UFC durability. Can be hurt, usually recovers if the shot is not clean.
Counter punching
This is a first-strike, pressure profile more than a counter. Wins come from owning the center, not waiting.
Takedown reaction
Hips arrive late. A committed wrestler will get them down; the question is what happens next.
Benoît Saint Denis “God of War” is a 30-year-old Southpaw lightweight out of France, camped at CYFIT. The tape read: volume pressure striker — southpaw. Career mark 17-4-0 — 0 by KO/TKO, 11 by submission, 6 by decision. Fight IQ grades B (69).
What works. Ground game is the standout at 83 (A). Chain wrestling and submissions are a primary weapon. 11 tapouts and 4.2 TD/15 put opponents on the fence or the mat. Ground game A on 4.15 TD/15 and 1.73 sub attempts. Striking defense B at 57% / 2.65 SApM. Counter punching C; punching agility B+ (output × accuracy × age curve). Takedown reaction C on 68% TD defense. These are tape proxies — not lab reaction times — built from FightMetric rates, finish shares, and 0 loaded UFC rows.
Where it breaks. Counter punching is the soft spot (55, C). This is a first-strike, pressure profile more than a counter. Wins come from owning the center, not waiting. Opponents who out-speed the first exchange and never stay on the centerline have historically been the ones who make this résumé leak. Losses lean decision more often than a highlight — the issue is usually control of minutes, not a glass jaw.
The book has no per-fight UFC rows for Saint Denis yet. This scouting card is carried by career FightMetric rates and the win-method split — treat the reaction and agility marks as wider intervals.
