Paddy Pimblett is making the most of his time off as the 27-year-old lightweight prospect has ballooned up to 200 pounds since his last fight at UFC London.
Pimblett, known for gaining weight in between fights, revealed backstage at UFC San Diego that he has gained roughly 45 pounds in three weeks.
“I’m about 200 (pounds),” Pimblett said on Saturday (h/t MMA Junkie). “I don’t know (if it’s normal). You could say that, you could not say that.
Pimblett plans to take his weight more seriously as he starts fighting higher-ranked opponents, but for now, he intends to enjoy himself as much as possible.
