The Return of the “God of War”: Benoît Saint Denis Submits Kyle Prepolec in Round 2 in a Fierce UFC 315 Battle

In the opening of the UFC 315 main card in Montreal, Frenchman Benoît Saint Denis delivered an impressive win over Canadian Kyle Prepolec, finishing the fight with a perfectly executed submission in the second round. This victory marks his comeback after suffering two consecutive losses in 2024.

Prepolec stepped in on short notice following Joel Álvarez‘s withdrawal, but he couldn’t withstand the fury of the “God of War.”

Round 1:

From the outset, Saint Denis dominated with a swift takedown, maintaining control on the ground. He worked relentlessly to secure back control and attempted a rear-naked choke, but Prepolec defended well using the cage. Despite not finding the finish, Saint Denis stayed aggressive with strong ground-and-pound.

Round 2:

Prepolec started the round with quick strikes, but Saint Denis countered with immediate pressure—landing sharp elbows and knees against the cage. He took the fight back to the ground and locked in a tight arm-triangle choke, giving Prepolec no escape. The tap came, ending the bout in round two.

Under the guidance of coach Nicolas Ott, Saint Denis executed a flawless game plan to reclaim victory.

Post-Fight:

Speaking after the fight, BSD wasted no time in calling out Mateusz Gamrot, saying he’s ready to face him in the coming weeks.

He also mentioned Dan Hooker and Justin Gaethje, signaling his serious intent to climb the lightweight rankings.
