Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted December 8, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 8, 2022 Paddy Pimblett taking shots at the media for exploiting fighters for their own personal gain whilst sat opposite Dana White is truly a magical thing. Helwani is pretty devisive these days but he pretty much wiped the floor with Paddy last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cousin Jim Bob Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Ariel refutes the claims very well but really summed up the whole thing early in one sentence where he says he thinks Paddy is buttering up his boss. I'd have called it brown nosing but he is to nice to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted December 13, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 13, 2022 Maybe my hatred for Pamby is turning me into a conspiracy theorist, but it seemed odd to me that Topuria didn't mention Paddy once during his post fight interview, but seemingly went on to say he wanted to fight him in pretty much every other media opportunity he got after he left the cage. Its not like their beef is over, they were at each other all during fight week. The in cage interview just seemed full of requests that weren't gonna happen. Getting a title shot next and UFC going to Spain? Honestly felt like he was specifically told not to bring up Paddy when the spotlight and maximum eyeballs were on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve read stuff since Saturday night saying ESPN were hiding comments on an article that were saying Paddy lost and all sorts. Dana swiftly moved on when asked by the media about doing a Topuria vs Pimblett fight as well. Very strange. You’d think they’d wanna jump all over that beef. Clearly don’t have much confidence in Paddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Jim Bob Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 What would you guys do with Paddy if you were the UFC? I know fire him into the sun will probably be most peoples view but if you wanted to make the most of this 15 minutes of fame.  He is not like McGregor or O'Malley where he is charismatic/obnoxious so drawing in interest but also wrecking lower level UFC guys on his way up, he is going life and death with everyone. Pray he gets better ? He doesn't seem exactly like a gym rat between fights. Outside the Hatton style love of overeating between fights, he has always had a reputation here in Liverpool of hitting the town and going out on the piss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two hateful cunts in the one cage. Winner gets the opportunity to get knocked out my Michael Chandler. Loser gets fed to Justin Gaethje. Then I'd put the two of them in a crate, destined for the most remote parts of the Congo. Everyone's eardrums live to fight another day. Edited December 13, 2022 by WeeAl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not? It's a fight Paddy should have won convincingly, there's a story and the backlash to play off, and if Gordon wins have some kind of clause in there that takes them to a trilogy. That ties Paddy up for another year and keeps him somewhat protected in fights that will high profile. Another name I saw mentioned was a Joe Lauzon fight, would love to see that too. Maybe a Clay Guida? names fighters on the backend. You get around that top 15 slot at 155 and you got problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jesse Posted December 14, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted December 14, 2022 I'd be up for a Clay Guida fight, I've got fond memories of him in his heyday and I'd love to see him batter the shine off of Pimblett. Maybe I'm being harsh on Paddy here but given he's struggling against a Jared Gordon I'm not sure (if I was the UFC) that I'd have faith in him to take on Guida, even a Guida in decline.

It's a fight Paddy should have won convincingly That’s the thing though, who says he should’ve beat Gordon convincingly and why? I genuinely think this is about Paddy’s level. People dismiss criticism like this as just being a ‘hater’ but it’s a fact that he’s really just not as good as many make out. I picked him to beat Gordon but I wasn’t exactly confident in it. There’s only so much they’re gonna be able to wrap him in cotton wool and as we’ve seen with this Gordon fight, even when they’re doing that he’s not exactly shining. What do they do if he rematches Gordon and it goes the same way? This was bad enough, if they have to rob Gordon twice it’s gonna look very fishy. Edited December 14, 2022 by wandshogun09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
