Paddy's cuck

Brilliant.

If it’s a legit fight. Chandler should win, imo.

But I’m getting Conor/Cerrone vibes from this one.

Hat's off to Cerrone on that one. It takes a lot of self control to make a dive look convincing. My theory on that one is Conor paid off Cerrone, UFC/Dana not involved.

Chandler is better literally everywhere except for submissions lmao

 

[Shadey1]

Maybe it's me but I just don't see what Paddy has for him other than height. Chandler hits harder and is a much better wrestler. It's a tough one to see paddy winning

Paddy Pimblett (22-3) is looking to make a statement against Michael Chandler (23-9).

Pimblett faces Chandler at the UFC 314 on Saturday at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida. While this will arguably be the biggest step up in competition for Pimblett, “The Baddy” sounds extremely confident going into his fight against Chandler. Pimblett believes he is better in all aspects than Chandler, who his known for his knockout power. However, Pimblett has famously declared in the past, “Scousers don’t get knocked out.” The Liverpudlian even claims he can beat Chandler more emphatically than lightweight elites Dustin Poirier, Charles Oliveira and Justin Gaethje.

"As soon as he gets punched in the face he just wants to have a brawl,” Pimblett said on the Full Send podcast. “And I'll be using it against him… I don't see where he can beat me. The only way he can beat me is if he throws a hail mary punch and knocks me out. But I don't get knocked out, lad. So I can see me just dismantling him and beating him everywhere. And I can see me beating him more convincingly than Poirier, Gaethje and Charles did.”

While Chandler is one of the biggest names on the roster, “Iron” is 2-4 in the UFC with all of his losses coming against accomplished veterans. Chandler is coming off a split-decision loss in a rematch against Oliveira. Meanwhile, Pimblett is undefeated in six UFC outings with four finishes and coming off a submission win over Bobby Green.

I keep saying this: Chandler won the 5th round against Charles on every scorecard.

He is still dangerous AF.

The 4th and 5th rounds (if they get there) may serve Chandler.

I hope Paddy proves me wrong here and can last the initial onslaught and make adjustments to pull off the win and flush another rank squatter.

There must have been a point in time when Sherdog stopped making fun of Paddy and started rooting for him, but I obviously missed it. Was it after Green?

 

[BangBang]

I think he will, and make it look easy

 

[BangBang]

Chandler should retire if he loses to this idiot.

You're off your tits mate

 

[HHJ]

Look at the competition Chandler has fought.

Poirier
Gaethje
Oliveira x2
Hooker
Ferguson

Except for their common opponent, who is kind of a gimme for both guys, Paddy simply hasn't been fighting guys on the same level Mike.

No but that's ok. He's been brought up slow. The Green win was actually impressive and shows improvement over his last outings and I don't consider Chandler a layup by any means.

With Paddy's chin first approach, I'm sure Chandler will get to crack it, I don't know who wins tbh. I'll go with the dingleberry Paddy, he's not a liar or a cheat.
