UFC star Paddy Pimblett weighs in to complete 40lb body transformation

Paddy Pimblett has weighed in at 155lbs to successfully complete his 40lb body transformation ahead of his second UFC appearance.

The Merseyside star emerged as a hot prospect after entertaining fans with a breakout victory over Luigi Vendramini last September. But he shocked fans by piling on the pounds shortly after his win, claiming that he weighed 195lbs at his heaviest.

He has now successfully made the 40lb weight cut, weighing 155lbs as promised ahead of his UK showdown with Rodrigo Vargas at The O2 arena on the UFC London card tomorrow night. Pimblett features on the main card before Arnold Allen takes on Dan Hooker and Tom Aspinall faces Alexander Volkov.
