UFC star Sean O'Malley has backed pal Logan Paul after he called out the significantly smaller Paddy Pimblett for his UFC debut.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer has come in for some harsh criticism after declaring that he would like to fight lightweight Pimblett in his first MMA bout, despite a huge size difference between the pair. The elder Paul brother has indicated that he is interested in coming to the UFC to face Pimblett, but their last weigh-ins were vastly different affairs.
Paul most recently faced Floyd Mayweather in an outlandish exhibition bout where he tipped the scales at 189.5lb, or just over the middleweight limit in MMA terms. Pimblett, on the other hand, was 155lb for his bout with Rodrigo Vargas in London last month, 34.5lb lighter than the social media star.
