Paddy Pimblett ranks himself alongside Conor McGregor and Ronda Rousey

Paddy Pimblett thinks he is the biggest name in the UFC after just two wins in the promotion.

Former Cage Warriors champion Pimblett was signed to the UFC last year and won his promotional debut by knockout against Luigi Vendramini. He returned to action earlier this month at UFC London, surviving an early scare against Kazula Vargas to win by first round submission.

The buzz that Pimblett received after his UFC debut saw him sign a seven-figure deal with media company Barstool Sports. Despite being one of the promotion's biggest stars, Pimblett is on the UFC's most basic salary package and was only guaranteed £9,000 for his most recent fight.
