Paddy Pimblett
Everyone give a round of applause and cheer for Tony Ferguson, an absolute legend of the sport. How did he survive that first round? I blew my load trying to get him out of there. I’m still a bit dissatisfied that I didn’t get the finish but he is one of the toughest motherf****** to get in the cage.
Pimblett, 28, previously stepped into the octagon in December 2022 at UFC 282, defeating Jared Gordon by unanimous decision on judges' scorecards. He has 21 wins and three losses on his record.
Ferguson, 39, last fought in July 2023 at UFC 291, losing to Bobby Green via third-round choke. He has 25 wins and ten losses on his record.
