This news was first reported by BJ Penn.
The incident has raised questions about Saint-Denis’ decision-making process and his willingness to take on short notice opponents. As reported by BJ Penn, fans have been left wondering what prompted Saint-Denis to turn down Gamrot’s offer.
In response to Gamrot’s comments, Saint-Denis has yet to publicly respond. However, the controversy surrounding the alleged turn-down has sparked a lively debate among MMA enthusiasts.
