Paddy Pimblett Biography
The Baddy

The brash native of Liverpool, England, Pimblett has been seen by some as a fighter possessing the kind of personality and skills to fill the void left when Conor McGregor became far less than a full-time fighter. Though willing to mix it up on the feet, as seen in his thudding finish of Michael Chandler at UFC 314, Pimblett's game shines most when he's able to put the fight on the floor, where he smothers with position and attacks with submissions. Pimblett suffered a setback at UFC 324 when he lost to Justin Gaethje with the interim lightweight title on the line, but he has the talent to fight his way back to a place as a contender.
