Sean O’Malley explains ‘lose-lose’ situation Paddy Pimblett faces vs. Tony Ferguson at UFC 296

UFC bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley thinks Paddy Pimblett doesn’t have much to gain by beating Tony Ferguson.

Pimblett (20-3 MMA, 4-0 UFC) meets the skidding Ferguson (25-9 MMA, 15-7 UFC) on Dec. 16 at UFC 296 in Las Vegas.

Pimblett and Ferguson are on completely different career trajectories. “El Cucuy” has lost his past six fights in a row, whereas Pimblett is unbeaten in the octagon after most recently edging out Jared Gordon at UFC 282 last December.
