UFC sensation Paddy Pimblett has recently fuelled excitement by suggesting that a face-off with YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul would render the latter unable to walk again. Pimblett, fresh from an impressive victory against Tony Ferguson at UFC 296, has firmly cemented his status as a formidable force in the MMA landscape.
During the intense 15-minute clash with Ferguson, Pimblett flaunted his exceptional grappling skills, securing a unanimous decision with all three judges scoring the contest 30-27 in his favour. This triumph marked a pivotal moment in the British fighter’s career, thrusting him into the spotlight and attracting attention from the big players in the division.
In response to Logan Paul’s open challenge, Pimblett delivered a stern warning on the Happy Hour Podcast. The Englishman asserted his dominance, declaring his intention to “snap [Paul’s] ankle” and “snap his knee ligament in 12 places,” adding a layer of intensity that transcends typical competitive banter. Pimblett brushed off Paul’s combat credentials, suggesting that the American stick to his wrestling roots and “fake fighting.”
UFC Star Paddy Pimblett Responds to Boxer Logan Paul
“I’ll snap his ankle for him, I’ll snap his knee ligament in 12 places so he’ll never walk again, the big juicehead”
“He’s a proper tool, he needs to stick to wrestling, he needs to stick to like fake fighting.”
“Him and Dillon Danis was probably staged as well, Dillon Danis threw more punches at the security guard than he did in six rounds at Logan Paul.”
Prior to his triumph over Ferguson, Pimblett had already etched an impressive record, securing six consecutive wins, including his first four bouts in the UFC. The 28-year-old fighter concluded five of those victories, tallying two knockouts and three submissions. With a current MMA record of 21-3, boasting six knockouts, Pimblett’s prowess in the octagon is indisputable.

Critics have raised questions about the decision’s legitimacy, serving as additional motivation for Pimblett to deliver a stellar performance against Ferguson at UFC 296.
