Paddy Pimblett has been warned by veteran commentator and comedian Joe Rogan that he could turn fans against him after he scraped to a decision victory over Jared Gordon.
The podcast host was commentating on Pimblett's pay-per-view debut, which followed a disaster fight week where he came under fire from fans amid a number of minor scandals. And he believes that if the Scouse fighter continues to act how he did following the Gordon win, including claiming that he had comfortably won the bout, he could see fans turn on him.
Rogan was speaking on his popular show The Joe Rogan Experience with top UFC welterweight Belal Muhammad when he made the implication that Pimblett may have been given the decision due to his popularity. And he expressed his concern that the Brit may be in trouble if he ends up taking a further step up in his next fight.
