Paddy Pimblett wants to rematch UFC rival Jared Gordon at the end of the year and has promised to "snap his arm" in one round.
Pimblett, 28, won a controversial decision against Gordon at UFC 282 last December with many fans and fighters labelling the outcome "one of the worst UFC decisions ever". Official fight stats show that Gordon landed more punches than Pimblett over three rounds and scored three takedowns whilst racking up over six minutes of control time on the ground.
Having recently undergone ankle surgery from an injury he suffered in the first round of the fight, Pimblett sent an expletive-fuelled message to Gordon from his hospital bed. 'The Baddy' labelled his rival as "f****** dog s***" and is hoping to meet him again in a UFC event towards the end of the year.
"I want to punch his head in toward the end of the year,” Pimblett said on his YouTube channel. “I am going to run it back. I hope he beats Bobby Green, because I’ll snap his arm for him in a round. Had a boxing match with him and I still won, because you’re s***.

“I hope he watched this. You’re f****ng dog s***. At my worst, you couldn’t beat me at your best. Injured, everything going wrong, and you couldn’t beat me on my worst day, and I beat you on your best, because you’re a little bum."
Pimblett extended his UFC unbeaten streak to four fights by controversially beating Gordon and will look for a second win against the American, granted he can get past Bobby Green next month. 'The Baddy' revealed that doctors told him he should have quit on his stool after suffering an ankle injury in the opening round against Gordon, a suggestion that he laughed off.
He added: “When I told doctors it happened in the first round of a fight, within the first minute, they said, ‘Oh, did you fight finish there,’ and I was like, ‘No, I’d done another two and a half rounds,’ they went, ‘What? You should’ve just sat on your stool and not have carried on fighting'.
“I said, ‘Are you mad? You think I’m some p****?’ People are like, ‘Oh, Jared Gordon did so well.’ He only done well because me ankle was f*****. You stupid t***. And he’s just being a bitter little girl, going on every interview site, ‘Oh, I won that fight, I won that fight.’ Well lad, Joe Solecki beat you [in 2021] but you got a split decision, so shut your mouth.”
