Paddy Pimblett is confident UFC boss Dana White will eventually bring the promotion to Anfield despite dismissing the prospect of a stadium show in the UK.
Avid Liverpool fan Pimblett has been calling for the UFC to come to Anfield after complaining that The O2 arena in London, which has a capacity of 20,000, is too small. Anfield currently holds 53,500 fans and will be increased to 61,000 once the arena's expansion is finished in the 2023/24 season.
Speaking of the UFC's possibility on going to Anfield whilst on the Spinning Backfist MMA show, White recently said: "I'm not going outside. I'm definitely not going outside in f***ing England. Listen, if you're going to go outside you go to Abu Dhabi where it's hot as hell and absolutely not going to rain."
