Excitement is building for ADXC 4 as UFC fighters Benoit Saint Denis and Marc Diakiese gear up to headline the event in a thrilling no-gi welterweight grappling match. Scheduled for May 18 at Dojo De Paris in France, this showdown promises to be a highlight of the evening.


Originally slated to face Arman Tsarukyan, Saint Denis now prepares to take on Diakiese in front of his home crowd. Following a streak of five consecutive victories, Saint Denis suffered a setback with a knockout loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 299 in March. Despite the defeat, Saint Denis revealed he battled a staph infection during the fight, affecting his performance.


On the other side of the mat, Diakiese looks to build on his recent success after securing a victory against Kaue Fernandes at UFC Fight Night 231 in Brazil last November. With three takedowns in the win, Diakiese put an end to a two-fight losing streak, showcasing his grappling prowess.


In addition to the highly anticipated Saint Denis vs. Diakiese matchup, UFC lightweight Abdul-Kareem Al-Selwady will also be in action, facing Amin Ayoub in another no-gi welterweight grappling bout on the main card.


As fans eagerly anticipate ADXC 4, the stage is set for an electrifying evening of elite-level grappling action. With Saint Denis and Diakiese headlining the event, MMA enthusiasts can expect nothing short of an intense and thrilling contest between two seasoned UFC fighters.
