Liverpool’s Paddy Pimblett is just two fights into his UFC career but Dana White thinks the Brit might already be ready to headline a show as the numbers, White says, speak for themselves.
Pimblett — otherwise known as ‘Paddy The Baddy’ — pulled in a whopping 1.3 million views on Instagram for his UFC London pre-fight faceoff with Rodrigo Vargas, and his post-fight interview with Michael Bisping (see here) has already generated over 450k views on YouTube.
White sees similarities between Pimblett and DWCS 2 winner Sean O’Malley, with the UFC president claiming both men were simply destined for the limelight.
