‘Pay Paddy his millions’: Fighters react to Paddy Pimblett’s dramatic victory over Jordan Leavitt at UFC London

Another day, another massive performance for Paddy Pymblett in front of a sell-out crowd in London

Going into his fight against Jordan Leavitt, fight fans were salivating at the thought of Pimblett finally facing a man who could push him to the brink in the Octagon. In the opening frame, Leavitt more than delivered as he crushed Pimblett into the fence before slamming him to the canvas. After some arguments between the two, Pimblett ended the round on top, much to the delight of the crowd.

With his confidence waning, PIbmlett opened the second round by winning and dropping Leavitt with a knee against the fence. After tripping Leavitt’s arm in his ribs, Pimblett finally forced Leavitt to tap with a deep choke.

That hand grab from behind was nasty! A creative threat from a defensive cage position and a big knee to the head. Jordan fought hard and made it interesting. A fun fight and a well-deserved victory. Nothing for Jordan to hang his head over. #UFCLondon
