Media Bragging Rights: Chandler vs Pimblett - Who wins and how?

[SalvadorAllende]

Though fight to predict. Paddy is improving and Chandler seems to be regressing.

IDK who wins but this will be a fun fight.

Fuck it.. Chandler via decision.

 

[Harlekin]

Chandler is old and sat out a long time for conor. Is his head still in the game?

I think paddy wins on points or a sub mid rounds

True, he fought Oliveira 5 months ago though guys.
And his cardio looked better than ever, which is crazy.
He used to gas after 8 minutes sometimes. And was still going at the end of 25 minutes with Olives, after getting controlled for 15 minutes.

Surely has nothing to do with the UFC kicking usada out hahaha ( i dont care)

Pimblett by decision, by beating (but not totally dominating) Chandler everywhere. Chandler has a few moments, maybe rocks Paddy once or twice. This may be partially due to eye pokes, grabbing the cage, shots to the back of the head, etc.

Chander's durability and cardio were impressive against Oliveira, but that's it. Chandler's only offense was late in the fight (4th round maybe?) when he eye poked Charles then followed up with shots to the back of the head. In other words, cheating.

I expect a similar fight and outcome with Paddy, who's not as good as an aging Charles, but good enough to win and smart enough not to trade bombs with Chandler. See my post above.

Scousers don't get knocked out. Paddy by sub

Tell that to Till.

 

[doggo]

Would love and have voted, with my heart a Paddy sub.

I am well aware he may get put to sleep in the first 10 minutes though.

 

[randomg1t]

i think people are underestimating the fact that paddy is 8 years younger.

chandler looks good, but he is 38 and this is a young man's game. even when he was younger he was known to fade in fights, more so because of how he fights than him being in bad shape.

i'd love for chandler to win this, but this is a younger guy coming up against an old guy on his way out. pimblett finishes him.

U kinda misremembering that sequence. It happened in the 5th round and Chandler landed three hard shots that stunned Oliveira and right after the third shot had landed he pushed off on Olives face which I'm guessing is the eyepoke you're talking about

So he did stun him before any eyepoke had happened, in the 5th round as well which is pretty remarkable and makes him dangerous for the full 25 min

Chandler loses first two rounds and comes alive in the 3rd …. But Paddy wins 29-28

 

[SKYNET]

If Paddy can't finish it early by sub, he's gonna leave the octagon a bloody mess

 

[Evbo]

Pimblett Rnd 3 RNC

 

[SKYNET]

Paddy wins 29-28

It's a 5 round co-main

 

[Mammothman]

Hopefully Chandler by KO

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

I was initially going with chandler but I've switched to paddy by close dec.

 

[d'Coda]

Predict the co-main event for bragging rights! Who wins and by what method of victory? Lock in your pick before the poll closes!

First photo looks like Twiggy with a beard.

 

[mitch316]

Paddy by Chandler doing something incredibly stupid.

 

[ThaiSexPills]

I literally have no idea. Not a single clue.

Is paddy actually a top 5 guy? Is Chandler actually a top 5 guy? Are one of them terrible? Are both? No clue!

My heart tells me Chandler loses by some brain fart despite being in control. I would not bet on this one, I can tell you that. Chandler by decision is what I put in the poll

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Chandler is far past his best-by-date…

Pimblett by whatever he wants at this point, although I really wouldn’t mind seeing Chandler somehow win…

 

[Guy LeDouche]

Anyone who thinks Chandler wins this and doesn’t fold like a lawn chair for the new poster boy is blind

Go bet a few thousands bucks on Pimblett to win if you really feel that strongly lol.
