Paddy Pimblett has announced an impressive win over Justin Gaethje at UFC 324, with the Englishman suggesting he will knock out the American which will shock fans.
Paddy Pimblett in early 2026 will face the opportunity to achieve the greatest success of his career to date. The Englishman will face Justin Gaethje in the UFC 324 fight of the evening, with the UFC interim lightweight championship belt at stake.
Many people criticize this juxtaposition, suggesting that Pimblett absolutely did not deserve to fight fights with fighters from the top of the up to 70 kilograms division. Fans and experts alike also dislike the fighter’s constant ascension in the rankings without fighting any fights.
Paddy Pimblett gave an interview to Red Corner MMA. During the interview, Baddy hinted that he plans to shock fans and wants an impressive win in a duel with the far more experienced Gaethje.
– I will knock him out and everyone will be shocked. People think I’m going to resort to grappling in this fight, and I don’t plan to do that. I think the duel will not go beyond the third round, just like the fight with Chandler.
Paddy Pimblett and Justin Gaethje will meet in the octagon on January 24 in the fight of the evening at UFC 324 in Las Vegas. This will be the first event of the UFC organization broadcast on the Paramount+ streaming platform.
