UFC 304 Manchester: Paddy Pimblett has one more fight on UFC contract


Paddy Pimblett has revealed his fight at UFC 304 in Manchester is the final bout on his current UFC contract.

The Liverpudlian is one of the biggest British stars in the promotion and has become a big name in the US.

Pimblett, 29, fights Bobby Green on 27 July in Manchester and the lightweight says he intends to stay with the UFC.

“I wouldn’t want to go to a different organization,” Pimblett told MMA Junkie., external

“UFC is the cream of the crop. It’s the main place. When you say to people, ‘I do MMA’. Most of them go, ‘What’s that?’ You say, ‘UFC’.

“People don’t even know what MMA is. They know what UFC is. You never know, though.

“Some of these stupid YouTubers who are boxing could end up offering me millions to end up fighting one of them. So we’ll see what happens.”

Several MMA fighters have crossed over into boxing in the last 12 months, including former UFC stars Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal.
