Described by one fighter as the “worst decision in UFC history,” Paddy Pimblett seemingly escaped with a lucky one Saturday when he edged Jared Gordon on the scorecards in the UFC 282 co-main event.
Pimblett (20-3 MMA, 4-0 UFC) remained undefeated inside the octagon when he was awarded the unanimous decision over Gordon (19-6 MMA, 7-5 UFC) in their lightweight bout at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, but a large sector of viewers are calling “robbery” on the questionable scoring of the fight.
Nevertheless, Pimblett was the man who got his hand raised in the end, and now he’s moved forward to the next stage of his career.
Whom should Pimblett fight next? Watch the video above for thoughts and analysis on his future after UFC 282.
