Paddy Pimblett is ready to take on the lightweight champion, Ilia Topuria, and he's not holding back on his confidence. In a recent interview, Pimblett expressed his belief that he would dominate Topuria in the octagon, stating, 'I'd absolutely smash his face in for him.' This bold prediction comes as Pimblett, a rising star in the UFC, has earned a potential title shot after his impressive TKO victory over Michael Chandler at UFC 314. However, the road to the championship isn't without its challenges, as Pimblett and Topuria have a history of heated exchanges, including a notable altercation during the UFC London fight week in March 2022. Despite the tension, Pimblett remains focused on his goal, aiming to bring Topuria 'crashing back down to earth' and prove himself as the top contender he believes he is. But here's where it gets interesting... The question remains: Can Pimblett's confidence translate into a victory, or will Topuria's championship reign continue? And this is the part most people miss... The true test of Pimblett's abilities will come when he steps into the octagon with Topuria. Will his confidence be justified, or will Topuria's dominance continue? We'll find out soon enough, and the UFC community is buzzing with anticipation. So, what do you think? Will Pimblett's bold prediction come true, or will Topuria prove him wrong? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
