UFC lightweight contender Renato Moicano has dismissed a potential fight with Paddy Pimblett by labelling the Scouser as "weak".
Pimblett, 28, extended his unbeaten UFC run to four fights last month by winning a controversial decision win against Jared Gordon at UFC 282. Gordon landed more punches than Pimblett over three rounds, scored three takedowns and racked up over six minutes of control time. Despite this, all three judges scored the fight unanimously in favour of Pimblett as fans expressed their anger with the decision.
'The Baddy' is yet to be ranked in the lightweight division having not fought any of the top 15 contenders at the weight class. Moicano, who sits at No.13 at 155lb, thinks the UFC is protecting Pimblett because of his star power in the promotion and has ruled out a fight against him.
