We’ve seen plenty of fighters enter the Ultimate Fighting Championship across the last twelve months, but few have been as loud and proud as Paddy Pimblett. The Scouse star burst onto the scene back in September with a vicious knockout win over Luigi Vendramini, completing a successful transition over from Cage Warriors in the process.
Nobody knows how far he’s going to go within what we all know to be a stacked 155-pound division. However, as a self-promoter, Pimblett knows how to get people talking.
One thing he’s had to deal with quite extensively in recent times has been the presence of online trolls in his mentions on Twitter and Instagram. During a recent episode of his podcast, ‘The Baddy’ gave his thoughts on that social media dynamic.

The next phase for Paddy Pimblett
As had been heavily rumored for months, Paddy Pimblett will appear on the UFC London card on March 19.
For a long time, it appeared as if he’d be taking on Jared Gordon. However, both men eventually came out and confirmed that the fight was never officially on the table.
Instead, Pimblett will lock horns with Rodrigo Vargas. This is viewed as another fight he should win, but as he and David Price discussed in the interview above, nothing in the fight game comes easy.
Vargas is going to head in there with the intention of making a statement, and Pimblett needs to be at the top of his game.
