UFC president Dana White loves 'incredible Scouse soup' recommended by Paddy Pimblett

Paddy Pimblett has left a lasting impression on many involved in UFC and the Liverpudlian's latest exploit was to introduce Dana White to 'Scouse soup'.

Merseyside fighter Paddy 'The Baddy' was in action over the weekend as he earned a third win of 2022 after beating Jared Gordon via unanimous decision at UFC 282 in Las Vegas.

The 27-year-old from Huyton edged a close and battling co-main event, despite potentially breaking his foot with a kick in the first round, winning by 29-28 on all three of the judges' scorecards to add to wins back in March and July.

Speaking to UFC president White after the bout, Pimblett was typically brazen in claiming he 'coasted' through the third round after dominating the opening two.

And the pair seem to have shared some words away from camera as well, with White agreeing to try a Merseyside signature dish simply known as 'Scouse'.

White posted on his Instagram confirming the agreement that he would try Scouse, with massive Liverpool fan Pimblett set to test 'something American' in the future.

The UFC chief filmed the process in which he created a version of the comforting broth before giving it a try.

A speechless White seemed to love it as well, managing little more than to describe the dish as 'incredible', 'awesome' and a 'winner'.
