Paddy Pimblett has shown off his weight loss as he prepares for his next fight which will take place next month at UFC London. After his last fight, a win against Rodrigo Vargas, the 27-year-old gained weight and was as high as 200lb which is close to 50lb above his fighting weight.
The lightweight will face Jordan Leavitt at the London event at the 02 Arena on July 23 and the Liverpool born fighter will be hoping to put on a show for his UK fans. Pimblett has enjoyed back to back 'performance of the night' awards so far in two UFC bouts since moving over from the cage fighters franchise.
Pimblett's weight gain in the wake of his fights has become part of his brand and has drawn criticism from some quarters. However, in a recent social media post, the fighter has showcased his weight loss as his training steps up ahead of his return to the Octagon next month.
