Ahead of Paddy Pimblett making the walk in Vegas this Saturday, where he takes on Queens native Jared Gordon at the T-Mobile arena. LiveScore Bet has looked at the stats of fighters from each of the famous port cities of Liverpool and New York.
It shows Paddy’s claim that ‘Scousers don’t get knocked out’ is still as true as ever. New Yorkers get knocked out almost twice as often.
Paddy Pimblett Gambles KO Record against Hard Knock New Yorker
A quick summary of each city’s KO Stats:
Liverpool fighters have the lowest loss by KO of all major UK cities. At just 13%! Paddy the Baddy is yet to be knocked out in 22 bouts. Jared Gordon has been KO’d four times in his 24 fights.
Liverpool fighters win 59% of their fights in the UFC. Whereas New Yorkers have an Octagon win ratio of just 42% in comparison. Scousers win almost a quarter (23%) of all fights via KO on the flip side New Yorkers manage just 17%.
Paddy ‘The Baddy’ Pimblett is taking his unique brand of fearless fighting and box office entertainment Stateside for his latest Octagon challenge. Liverpool’s hottest UFC star will take on American Jared Gordon on December 10th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The Scouser has spent his time away from the Octagon since his July victory against Jordan Leavitt. Tapping out marines and apologising for his dog’s bowel movements to unsuspecting members of the UK public.
He is the bookie’s strong favourite ahead of the Vegas showdown. As he looks to enforce his claim that Scousers don’t get knocked out, a statement that LiveScore Bet found to be true back in July. Paddy’s first and only visit to Sin City resulted in a first-round knockout win against Luigi Vendramini in September 2021. So he will look to continue his 100% record on December 11th.
In Pimblett’s 22 professional matches he has won 19, with 6 coming via KO or TKO. Yet no one has so far succeeded in knocking out the 27-year-old lightweight.
