Paddy Pimblett makes charity announcement ahead of fight at UFC 282

UFC star Paddy "The Baddy" Pimblett has unveiled his charity, The Baddy Foundation, in a bid to tackle mental health stigmas and help children who are struggling to be fed.

The lightweight, unbeaten so far in the UFC, has been outspoken in his opposition to the use of foodbanks on Merseyside and held an emotional post-fight interview following his submission win during his last outing in the octagon after the loss of his close friend just days earlier.

Pimblett has spoken openly about his discontent with the ongoing cost of living crisis, as well as the ongoing struggles for families across the region choosing between heating and putting food on the table.
