Paddy Pimblett has admitted he still has around 39lbs or 14.5kg to lose before his upcoming fight against Jordan Leavitt at UFC London at the end of the month.
The Baddy is unbeaten in his UFC career and is quickly establishing himself as one of the contenders to be the next faces of the business. Away from the Octagon, he is well-known for his love of food which saw him in the headlines after his first-round submission win over Rodrigo Vargas in March as he enjoyed his out-of-camp lifestyle.
The 27-year-old has documented the gruesome weight cuts he had to endure to make weight during his successful time in Cage Warriors. With his fight just a matter of weeks out, he has detailed that he still has some pounds to shed before the weigh-in.

"We've struggled in the past when we've been unprofessional about it," Pimblett said reminiscing about his and Molly McCann's weight journeys to Gary Neville on his Sky Sports show The Overlap. "But now we're very professional about it, so we don't.
"People say to me 'oh, you're fat,' and think I struggle, I've still got 14.5kg to lose, but that's nothing. Around six weeks ago, I was 93kg and I fight at 70. That was me being fat."
It has yet to be disclosed when 'The Baddy' and 'Meatball Molly' enjoyed the stroll with the former Manchester United captain with the video posted last week. But since then, both Next Generation MMA fighters have been filmed in good shape ahead of their upcoming bouts on their respective social media platforms.
Pimblett took to Instagram on Sunday to show his lean figure after completing a six-mile run. Both Meatball Molly and Paddy The Baddy will be in action at the O2 Arena in London on July 23.
