Paddy Pimblett passed the latest test in his budding career Saturday when he defeated former Bellator champion Michael Chandler in the UFC 314 co-main event.
Pimblett (23-3 MMA, 7-0 UFC) broke in to the top 10 of the lightweight rankings courtesy of a third-round TKO victory over Chandler (23-10 MMA, 2-5 UFC) in the co-headliner at Kaseya Center in Miami, and now he has some massive fights on the horizon.
