Paddy The Baddy has not been able to catch a break ever since the decision of his recent fight against Jared Gordon in UFC 282 went his way. Many fight fans have been saying that there was a clear winner – and it was not the rising star.
Paddy has issued a very passionate response to his critics asking them to compare his face and his opponent’s face after the fight. He says that he did more damage to his opponent than his opponent did him, and fights are being scored based on the damage being done and not on the “control time”.
“I don’t care what anyone says. When you look back at the history books, I’ve got a green marker next to my name so everyone else can suck my a**hole,” Pimblett said during the post-fight presser at UFC 282. Pimblett was very passionate and furious at his critics since he “knows” that the fight wasn’t even close to a split decision.
