Promotional-perfect lightweight, Paddy Pimblett has played up the possibility of a fight with recent UFC Vegas 85 co-main event winner, Renato Moicano following the Brazilian’s win over the course of the weekend, claiming he would “smoke” the former if they share the Octagon.
Pimblett, who is yet to crack the official lightweight top-15 rankings, most recently featured on the main card of UFC 296 back in December, landing a one-sided unanimous decision win over former interim lightweight champion, Tony Ferguson.
The win came as former Cage Warriors featherweight champion, Pimblett’s fifth consecutively under the promotion’s banner, following prior wins over Luigi Vendramini, Kazula Vargas, Jordan Leavitt, and Jared Gordon.
