- Paddy Pimblett has three lightweight contenders shortlisted as his next potential opponent
- “The Baddy” has gone unbeaten in all of his UFC bouts
Paddy Pimblett has named the lightweights that ticked the boxes to become his next opponent.
Paddy calls out a few names
Speaking on his YouTube channel, “The Baddy” expressed his desire to compete when the UFC returns to Manchester. Ahead of the official announcement, Pimblett already called out a handful of lightweight contenders he wants to face.
According to Pimblett, he would be glad to piece Renato Moicano as the Brazilian has been taking shots at him. Besides Moicano, “The Baddy” also considers taking on Drew Dober or Matt Frevola.
“I’m hearing little rumors of July in Manchester, PPV, think you might see your boy on there.” Pimblett said. “Hopefully Moicano the little mushroom, hopefully, he beats Jalin Turner even though I can’t see it happening, Jalin Turner’s good… I think he’s going to knock Moicano out. Moicano can come running back to me for some publicity to try and get a fight and I’ll knock him out as well. If he wins or loses, I want to punch Moicano’s head in. He’s been talking all sorts of sh*ts, he owes me money, he lost me money on a bet years ago, you little fart. If I fight Moicano, I want to scrap, don’t start calling me Paddy Pimb***h and then be scared to throw down you little sausage.”
“Oh yeah, Dober as well. Dober said something about me as well. if Moicano gets his jaw snapped or something, multiple people would wana slice isn’t there? You know what I mean. Drew Dober, he’s another ranked opponent., nice to fight him… He’s got power in his hands, couldn’t knock me out though. And if Moicano was out grappling you for two to three rounds, imagine what I’d do to you on the floor,” he continued.
“Matt Frevola’s always mentioning me. I like Matt Frevola as well. I like his style. He’s a Paddy fan also,” he added.
Paddy is on a roll
Pimblett has now earned the right to call out who he wants to fight next, having gone unbeaten in the UFC in five consecutive fights. His latest victory was a decision win over Tony Ferguson which certainly added buzz to his already talked-about UFC career.
As it stands, “The Baddy” is on the look out to beat a ranked opponent to finally break into the light division’s Top 15. It is yet to be known what lies ahead of him but it is expected to be another exciting matchup.
