It appears the MMA news media outlets are hyping Paddy
the Baddy Pimblett. According to some of those articles, he is being endorsed by the notorious one Conor McGregor and also implies that he
might be the next Conor McGregor.
Pimblett has often been compared to McGregor throughout his rise to prominence.
On Tuesday, another fan did so on social media and McGregor responded by wishing ‘The Baddy’ well and reminiscing about his time in Liverpool for the Grand National in 2017, while also taking a shot at Michael Bisping.
Pimblett recently revealed he is hoping to one day square off against McGregor at Anfield Stadium – the home of Liverpool Football Club.
“An Irishman versus a Scouser. I feel like that would be fucken rowdy. That would be next level. It would be ridiculous, to be honest.”
“He’s [Conor McGregor] a money type of guy. And fighting an Anfield in front of like 60-70,000 people is where the money’s at,” Pimblett added. “So, that’s why I could see that happening. But anyone. It doesn’t matter. Like, I’m going to be that big of a star that you could fucking put me in there against a hobo and I’d fill it out.”Source https://www.lowkickmma.com/conor-mcgregor-sends-message-to-paddy-pimblett-ahead-of-ufc-debut/He certainly has the confidence hehehe.
