Nicely, okay then.
Ilia Topuria defended his Final Preventing Championship (UFC) Featherweight championship in unbelievable trend at UFC 308 yesterday (Sat., Oct. 26, 2024) when he grew to become the primary fighter to knock out UFC legend Max Holloway from inside Etihad Enviornment in Abu Dhabi, UAE (watch highlights).
It’s secure to say most fighters had been impressed by Topuria’s unbelievable feat of knocking out Holloway. One fighter who gave him props and instantly dissed the champion by saying he’d win in a combat was Light-weight Paddy Pimblett.
“Hand sanitizer boy with the win,” Pimblett stated on his YouTube channel Heavy. Nicely completed, Ilia, provide you with your due lad, 16-0 hand sanitizer boy. I can’t look ahead to him to come back again as much as Light-weight. I nonetheless suppose I’d beat him. I actually do. I nonetheless suppose I beat him, lad. Whether or not he simply beat Max Holloway or not. I nonetheless suppose I’d beat him by kicking him on the ft or taking him down and submitting him.”
To be truthful to Pimblett, what was he alleged to say? Particularly with the bad blood between the two.
Whereas Pimblett might have all the religion on this planet that he beats Topuria, the web doesn’t.
Another ideas on “Baddy’s” loopy take had been the next:
Buddy is a particular type of silly
Even he doesn’t appear to be he thinks that
Buddy needed to repeat himself 3x. Even he doesnt consider that shit haha
Bro was getting hit by washed 0-7 Tony lmao
That is the dude that went to choice with 2023 Tony Ferguson
Paddy lad Max is as tall and also you don’t also have a third of his expertise when it comes to distance administration and takedown protection. Your jits is nice however it isn’t carrying you over Ilia, come on now.
He’d get his block knocked off.
Topuira would do inhumane issues to paddy. Let’s set it up.
As talked about, Topuria and Pimblett don’t like one another and have virtually come to blows a number of instances. Pimblett threw a hand sanitizer bottle at Topuria in 2022.
