Chandler vs Pimblett is a mismatch

[Paladin]

Paddy has terrible striking defense and was getting tagged by Jared Gordon, he’s also a brawler and brawling with Iron Mike is a recipe for disaster, unless you’re an elite striker like Poirier or Gaethje.

Chandler is a tough night out for every lightweight there has ever been. He finds a degree of success in every fight, I just don’t see Paddy taking those bombs (which he will)

Gives me Diamond vs BSD vibes.

Pimblett will win. Father Time is not at all of Chandlers side. Sorry to say but all the legends.. Dustin, Gartche, Chandler etc who are over 35 can’t really bang with Paddy any more.

 

[Paladin]

His skillset is fairly accurately rated but he can get away with having holes because he’s so big and fast for the division.

He’s also not 35+ yo like the rest of the division.

Yes!! Youth and cardio conditioning are on Paddy’s side

This guy trying to beat Paddy the Baddy's wing eating record

Paddy getting KO'ed would make my day

No, it isn't.

Mike is old, he might have thrown the fight, and he will be finished by Paddy either way.

 

[Tapatio]

But I thought Scousers don't get knocked out?

 

[Klippy]

I think Chandle has awful fight IQ, Paddy seems like a good bet.

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

I’m pulling for Chandler, but I feel like Pimblett wins this one inside the distance…

Paddy is mid as shit but they've match made him perfectly and he might be one of those right place right time fighters where he is catching guys on the way out.

Bobby was 38 and suffered a horrific late stoppage KO to Jalin. Ruffy just MURKED him too. He is done.

Chandler also 38 and didn't fight in 2 years until the Charles fight in which he did jackshit for 90% of the fight. Just stood there and fouled his way to a round 5 win. He could be done too.

If Mike looks shot Paddy could win. Then they might give him white belt Gaethje who he could EASILY submit. Then he would get a shot.... This current gen of LW was a massive failure. Ismagulov, Dawson, Benoit, Fiziev, Gamrot, Jalin, Rebecki..... They were supposed to be the next contenders and they've been getting picked off by the generation before them leaving guys in their late 30s to take up the top 10. Paddy could be in prime position to take advantage.

This is a great matchup because there's something to gain for both.

Paddy has been doubted since god knows when, so he needs challenges. Tony was supposed to be a good one but its confirmed tony is now retarded from age and wars. So....let's try someone harder.

Chandler needs a win and paddy should be an easy one, but chandler loves shitting his own bed. Paddy hasnt had a lil gorilla like Chandler that doesnt get tired.

Good matchmaking for sure

GOD tier matchmaking if you're Paddy or his team

The way people hate random boisterous people never fails to make me giggle

Like how sad are people that they give a fuck about some random guy talking shit

To the point where they HATE him and have to see him get smoked.

Ain't no winners on that vibe, that's all I can say, lol

Of all the hated guys, I truly don't understand the Paddy hate. He's a fat, funny, brawling scouser with a heart. I don't know what's to hate.

 

[CobraCobretti]

Dustin really dislikes MMM, but still recommended to bet heavily on him.

 

[Doctor Grudge]

Maybe, but Chandler has an uncanny knack for going full ree ree and losing fights that he should win.

Not really? Chandler has only lost to guys he should have lost to.

 

[Jonny Ninja]

Paddy’s got a very solid chin. This may save him against chandler and if he can make it till the end he has every chance of out working him. If it goes to the ground he has the skills to submit him. I still probably favour chandler to knock him out but this is definitely a fight paddy can win. I’m almost 50/50 on it

 

[HeadKickerV2]

Not a fan of Pimblet but for some reason i see him getting to Chandlers back, think Pimblet grappling is underrated

 

[chillyoo]

Using the Gordon fight against Paddy when he’s looked the way he has since then is foolish.

This is a big test but I could see Paddy winning if Mike fails to get him out early. He could sub him.

 

[mmacool]

Chandler will put a beating on paddy until Chandler out of a sudden takes down paddy, only to get subbed by paddy. Fight IQ.

 

[WINGNUT]

some of you are gonna be salty when you see how easily Paddy takes out Chandler. Chandler is too washed up. He is going to get taken down by the much larger paddy and then molested on the ground
