An absolute banger has been slated for International Fight Week.

It was widely reported Friday that lightweight stars Paddy Pimblett and Benoit Saint Denis are set to throw down at UFC 329 in Las Vegas on July 11.

Saint Denis opens as a -170 moneyline favorite on DraftKings Sportsbook, while Pimblett counters as a +142 underdog. 

Paddy “The Baddy” (23–4, 7–1 UFC) is coming off his first Octagon loss — a unanimous decision against Justin Gaethje for the interim belt in January. The English star, 31, had previously won nine straight bouts, highlighted by back-to-back finishes of King Green and Michael Chandler. Pimblett owns a 74% finish rate, including seven knockouts, 10 submissions, and 12 first-round stoppages.

Saint Denis (17–3, 9–3 UFC) has returned to form following a dreadful 2024. The 30-year-old Frenchman, dubbed the “God of War,” now rides a four-fight winning streak, punctuated by a second-round knockout of Dan Hooker in January. He boasts a 100% finish rate, comprising six knockouts, 11 submissions, and eight first-round stoppages.

At the top of the division, Gaethje will meet champion Ilia Topuria for a title unification bout on the White House lawn on June 14.
