Paddy Pimblett and Jared Gordon have given opposing views of a 2018 training session ahead of their UFC 282 fight.
Pimblett, who fights Gordon this Saturday in Las Vegas, told BT Sport that he submitted the American twice in five minutes when they rolled at MMA legend Renzo Gracie's New York gym in 2018. Mirror Fighting questioned Gordon on the matter during the press conference ahead of their fight and he gave a different view of the meeting in question.
"We never rolled ever, the first time we had physical contact was this past week," Gordon said. "As a matter of fact, I remember walking into Renzo's and recognising him on the mat. We made eye contact and then he looked at the mat, and that was the last time I saw him in person until this week.
