UFC star Paddy Pimblett previously ruled out fighting in New York for tax reasons, but 'The Baddy' has now hinted he could change his mind.
Pimblett insisted after his win against Jordan Leavitt at UFC London last month that he wouldn't be fighting in the UK again until the promotion hold an event at Anfield Stadium, the home of his beloved Liverpool FC. UFC boss Dana White targeted a pay-per-view debut for Pimblett in either Boston or New York for his next fight, but Pimblett said the tax rate in New York would put him off fighting there.
When asked if he still wouldn't fight in the state because of tax reasons, Pimblett said on his YouTube channel: "No, it's just I don't know if I'll be ready by then to be honest. The card I'm thinking of fighting on is like four weeks later, that's Vegas. It's the fight capital of the world, so I'd love to fight in Vegas. I do want to fight in New York as well, we'll see."
