Paddy Pimblett doubles down on weight loss plan after bulking to 200lb again

Paddy Pimblett has continued his post-fight eating habits as he weighs above 200lb again just three weeks after his UFC London win.

Pimblett, 27, picked up his third consecutive UFC win last month by submitting Jordan Leavitt in the English capital. It marked the Liverpudlian's second win of the calendar year having submitted Kazula Vargas at The O2 arena in March. Just like he did after that win, Pimblett has gone on a food binge following his win as 'The Baddy' has put on 45lb in just a matter of weeks.

Whilst speaking with Manchester United legend Gary Neville before his latest fight, Pimblett said he will ditch his eating habits when he gets older and starts to face tougher competition in the UFC. Whilst revealing he currently weighs "around 200lb“, Pimblett doubled down on his weight loss comments by telling reporters: "When I’m a bit older and once I start fighting ranked opponents, I will keep my weight down but for now, I enjoy putting a little bit of chub rub on."
