MMA analyst Din Thomas has given his thoughts on the future of Paddy Pimblett in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
At UFC 324 last month, Paddy Pimblett went up against Justin Gaethje with the UFC interim lightweight championship on the line. While he put forward a spirited effort, ‘The Baddy’ wasn’t quite able to get the job done, and he was ultimately overwhelmed by the power and overall striking ability of ‘The Highlight’.
Paddy Pimblett is clearly very talented and there’s no way of getting around that. Unfortunately, he didn’t seem to really utilize his strongest weapon, which is his grappling.
