More Fantasy News
Facing Green in July
Pimblett will take on Bobby Green in a lightweight bout at UFC 304 in Manchester, England on July 27, per Damon Martin of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
Pimblett will put his perfect UFC record on the line against the 37-year-old American following a series of verbal shots from both sides. Paddy "The Baddy" owns a seven-fight win streak across promotions and will take on Green in his home country, though the veteran American has the experience to challenge the younger Englishman.

Remains perfect in UFC
Pimblett defeated Tony Ferguson via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC 296 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
A clean sweep on the judges' scorecards looks great, but outside of a dominant first round, this was an underwhelming performance from Paddy. He appeared to have Ferguson finished multiple times the first frame but couldn't close the show. Pimblett generated very little offense over the course of the final ten minutes, mostly hanging out in Tony's guard and scoring control time. Paddy also appeared visibly exhausted to the point he would have been in significant trouble had he not been able to get the fight to the mat in Round 3. There's still little to suggest Paddy is any sort of legitimate contender despite the fact he has won each of his first five UFC bouts.

Will fight Tony Ferguson
Pimblett will fight Tony Ferguson at UFC 296 on Dec. 16th according to Dana White.
ANALYSIS
The Baddy is officially back after missing extended time recovering from ankle surgery. While Pimblett is a rising star with his 4-0 record in the UFC, his last victory over Jared Gordon was hardly impressive, so he'll have plenty to prove after so much time away from the Octagon.

Set to miss extended time
Pimblett (ankle) will remain out until late 2023 while he recovers from ankle surgery, MMAJunkie.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Pimblett, who sustained the ankle injury during his fight with Jared Gordon in December, will remain sidelined for most of 2023. The up-and-coming 28-year-old fighter will look to bounce back from the injury and defend his perfect 4-0 UFC record later this year.

Needs ankle surgery

Pimblett sustained the injury during his most recent victory over Jared Gordon in December. The 28-year-old fighter who currently holds a record of 4-0 in the UFC, is likely to pursue events further in the future to allow more recovery time.
