- Britain's Paddy 'The Baddy' Pimblett tells his story before his UFC debut against Luigi Vendramini in Las Vegas on Saturday - after turning down the UFC twice in his younger years.
He talks about comparisons with former UFC champion Conor McGregor, coming up through Cage Warriors and going off the rails.
Pimblett, 26, fights on the undercard of fellow Liverpudlian Darren Till's fight against Derek Brunson.

This was a great clip. Shows that he's actually a really solid kid and has a good head on his shoulders. Definitely has made me a fan..
He said the same damned shit they all say, damn you fools are shallow.
@@SlayerofFiction u type like like some shitty fantasy video game character pls log out and go outside u melt
@@SlayerofFiction because they all experience the same hardship during their career, something that you will never experience and understand
@@bangnguyen8365 I kickboxed.
With that said it's a entertainment industry and people are promoted on their ability to "Entertain"
@@SlayerofFiction oh so u kickboxed, are you a pro? a champion? don't compare a hobby to a career
I like how he look after his family...Will be supporting him now, betting on him tonight
Free money 💰 good choice lad
Any man that doesn’t take care of his family isn’t a real man
He won
Props
How did you do?
Didn’t think I would like him but I really do, fingers crossed he reaches his potential and becomes a champion. Good luck Paddy
First step to success is to believe in yourself!
he has that cockiness that is enjoyable to watch in a fighter, not overly aggressive like Conor
Paddy is smart for not taking the offer and taking time to develop his skill
And developed his contract 🤑💰💵💲
I'm sure it was tough. He's a wild man. A wise voice advises him well.
Tom aspinall too. Absolutely has his head screwed on. Doesnt want to rush up the rankings. Very mature approach
@@JD_13 Still got crushed twice. Gane would STARCH Aspinall!
@@danielmiller9012 Who got crushed twice? Aspinall is 4-0 in the UFC, of course he isn’t ready for the top 5 yet. Hence why he’s taking it steady..
Never heard of this Paddy 'The Baddy' until last night, very interesting character :D best of luck climbing that mountain champ!
i first heard of him from when he was on the True Geordie podcast. I knew from that moment he’ll one day be a star.
When you’re in your 20s and can confidently say “This is what I was put on earth to do”….then the success is guaranteed in the near future if you keep at it. That clear of a vision, determination and self motivation at that young of an age is unstoppable.
Very likeable guy, fantastic attitude and he's tremendous with the fans. Can't wait to see him later
Isn't that how conor was before the money came rolling in, then we saw the true conor behind the facade.
I find him annoying to be honest.
@@silveriver9 doesn't mean he will follow suit
@@ginge7945 More likely will than won't. We've seen it all too many times.
@@silveriver9 you can't judge a person by others actions.
Just imagine if he fell backwards off that fence
"That was paddy the baddy"
Yeah, I guess they think they're birds or something.
lmao
It’d be baddy for paddy
@@Andrico77 😂😂
@@Andrico77 lol
I love hair like his in combat sports. It really shows the recoil when people get hit in the head. That said, I wanna see this guy keep winning. Love his style. Go paddy!
Same! But sometimes I think that might work against them, as it might sway the judges decision against them in a close fight
@@robjervis3898 train hard so you don’t have close fights 💪
@@kymma2589 that’s actually a really good idea bro
@@robjervis3898 also can blur sight
What about clay guida's hair 😂
He's a passionate & determined fella but I love that he's down to earth..He's got a goal but stays in touch with reality & that's respectable. Just cause you're the biggest star, doesn't mean you're the brightest.
Go get it paddy, fan for life here.
He has been making headlines everywhere. Love from Africa 🇿🇦🇱🇸
He's so humble and down to earth, his mother even still cuts his hair
Humble?? Please....
This is like watching those old Connor videos all over again, can’t wait to look back when he has his own alcohol company thinking “I miss old paddy”
Then We gotta enjoy this as much as we can now
Paddy’s an inspiration seriously his fighting style and ability is something else, he’s going all the way to the top of this sport 💯 big up paddy the baddy
The scariest thing about him is his flawless 1970’s look. Devastating.
Maybe if your gay like you then ok… 😃
@@NEO786 WITH A NAME LIKE JUST A GUY? It sounds like you're the one looking for a man
Just remember to stay humble and pride comes before a fall.
Glad to support you Paddy.
I hope you go far.
The octagon structure they were shooting in was very creative framing. I appreciated that.
Go on Paddy lad!!! We’re all behind ya mate 💪🏻🏴
Why the English flag mate? He said he's not English, he denies his own country
Yeah there’s a video on CZcams of him celebrating Italy after they won the World Cup. He’s a clown.
@@useroldaccount he talks shit about Italians. It depends on the day. He is indeed a clown.
@@peternorman1943 where can I find this?? I saw him say let's bring the ufc to England
@@useroldaccount god i was happy when italy won
How could anyone dislike paddy? A humble lad with real potential and ambition, smash em paddy
I love his spirit! The loss made him the man he is today!
Just watched this.
Clearly he understands this is entertainment, bums on seats ,pay per view and he can talk the talk.
Down to earth guy from Liverpool.
I shall be following this guy as I have never met a Scouser I didn't like.
Big fan of Paddy for a while now. Good luck tonight from Massachusetts!!!!!!!! 💥👍☘
Paddy the Baddy, lol, I was sold as soon as I heard the name. Now I’ve seen this he seems a unique blend of someone with supreme confidence and yet doesn’t take himself too seriously. First impressions, I like the kid, I’ll be rooting for him, he has a new fan.
This dude.
True. Focused. Figured out, and unashamedly appreciative of the building blocks that got him to where he’s at.
Tough to beat that.
Can’t look at him without singing “I feel fine” by the Beatles. 😂
@korgy hows that racist mate 💀
All great champs lose a fight, its how you deal with it makes u a great champ, this kid is so good to watch, i wish him nothing but great success
Khan in has never lost a fight. Retired undefeated and is the greatest
I heard about this guy making his UFC debut and watched highlights of previous fights. I'm a fan now. Watched his debut and Jesus this guy is nuts. Excited to see what he'll do in the UFC.
Loved this stay focus and archive your dreams Scouse and proud ❤️ YNWA ❤️
Well... he will either be a legend in his own time, or a legend in his own mind.
But he seems cautious, determined, and well-disciplined. I bet on his success. All the way. Go get ‘em, kid. You have my Blessing.
Would love to see him do really well & inspire the kids around him!!! please learn from McGregor's mistakes & keep a sense of values/respect 💚🌸✨
Just found you on CZcams , well what can we say geeky haircut cocky a right showman ... but boy can you fight a right breath of fresh air in to the sport. Good luck on the journey keep it real and keep the KO's and submissions coming great to watch esp when you see the other opponents thinking there going to get one over only to get right messed up ..... good luck !
Hard work pays off
Good luck to the kid
i like this young kid, he seems to be clever, he looks so bankable, i really hope that fame won't disturb him, to me his future must be really shiny
Jay: they had to get a load of Cambodian sparing partners in because I knocked everyone else out.
You knocked everyone out? I love it when guys use other guys videos to brag about how great they think they are.
@@BUSTRCHERRI it’s impressive how little of an idea you have here
Second hand embarrassment for you
Real fighter with personality like him is rare
Saw his last fight in CW, im glad for him.. And i wish him THE best of luck climbing THE UFC mountain. Great person
Hope this guy goes to the very top . Seems like a nice guy . Work's hard . Got a great family and crew around him . Nice to see .👊👍👌🤟
Once he has a whiskey business an hooks up with that dork in the park, it will all be replaced with yes men an fools lol
Jk hope he keeps it real.
he would get smoked by anyone in the top ten...top 5 would murder him
@@jamieh3772 good call ya after watching him I agree . Seems like there guna push him to the top . Let's see if he can improve and keep wining 👌
Good luck tonight Paddy Lad! One juice head turkey at a time!
😂
, Best of luck , i hope you go all the way to the top, Best Wishes from Ireland,
i saw him first by accident and i loved him. Sharp mind, the winning machine. all best from poland
So much hype around Paddy - I really hope he wins for his sake...I mean when was the last time we saw the UFC, BT, BBC, and numerous other major international media outlets pumping a relatively (on the global scale - I know he's popular in the UK) unknown debut fighter?
Win or lose his fanbase is solid. The other guy isn't a walk in the park. But I hope paddy submits him. I got money on that finish.
If paddy gets the flying triangle finisher he'll be catapulted onto all the teens best poster wall space. Signature move thing. Mortal kombat finish him. Im sure he's won afew times with flying triangle.
Looks bad for paddy then suddenly dudes dropped on his head and remapped. Paddy has everything Connor has and more inc proper Irish name haha. Manners. Honour. Ground game. The union jack behind him best flag in the world. Favourite to win tonight at PADDY POWER bookies the only place to put bets on paddy, power him up. I just wish I could watch it live but only have my phone and well. I'm poor ill wait till tomorrow thanks BT Sport. When they upload it.
@@TrollingHistory I get what you're saying, but you can't take many L's in the UFC, that's the issue.
@Tracey Handcharm on CW videos yes, but the UFC is another world of fighting.
@Mellomarke Yeah, he followed through! Good for him!
Because his young, explosive, likeable an the ufc have been begging for him for years
Done well since the Inbetweeners finished
so unoriginal
this joke has been rinsed for months 😭
He didnt lie about being ufc fighter
Inbetweeners ? Completed it, mate.
Best tv programme ever made!! Factz💯👊🧙♂️
Love him! Wish him great success! 🙌🏽
Paddy has all of the makings of a SUPER STAR. Stay healthy Paddy! I'm cheering for you.
Been rooting for him for a while
Loved this bloke ever since his first time on True Geordie’s ‘The Knockout’. UP THE PADDY 🇬🇧
We know you in Amsterdam now’! You rock!
Exactly what the UFC needs is you! 🥳
Just the fact BBC ate doing shows the potential of this lad. Good luck to him.
Hoping Paddy keeps up that crazy winning streak. We need to see some new young blood in the UFC that is entertaining.
Really looking forward to tonight i want Paddy to to put on a show and show the world what he’s all about.
he delivered
@@EricFIT He sure did💯
Great interview. Wish I could understand it but still good. I like this kid's vibe.
Attitude is everything in life. Combine it with talent and the outcome is amazing.
UFC? Completed it mate!!
This comment deserves more likes im defo stealing It for future reference 🤣
At the end of the day it's the same speech from every single athletes since the beginning I'm here to be the best I'm here to make a name for myself it's my destiny
and you have done what ?
Either way they are living out their dream. Whats it matter to you?
What u want him to say, im here to b the worst, its an absolute nightmare being here
Is everyone appreciating this young man’s self awareness of his journey?? Future champ! 100%. All the way to the top!!! 👍💜
Fair play to this lad 👍🏻 enjoy the journey
Looking forward to watch his fight as well as Morono tonight.
*Routing for this guy, hope he keeps the hair. He’s already got an iconic feature so early in his career*
Lets go Paddy! It's not just Liverpool and the hardcores supporting you now mate, the country seem well and truly behind you, better yet... globally too. I've been very excited for this moment for what seems like many years now and i firmly believe that Paddy will shine this evening under the bright lights. 2nd round rear naked choke or ground and pound stoppage victory for Paddy for me. Show off that grappling please fella 👍🥋🤙 Also, this whole card is full of exciting fights, we're being spoiled as of late by the UFC as their match making has been phenomenal.
Good luck from ireland man.
Love Paddy. Hope he smashes it.
I like this dude, young, tuff, intelligent in the cage, ground skills, hits hard, confident, exciting fighter. Someone is gonna be gunnin' to break that nose though.
I like him, but hi isn't "intelligent in the cage". Walking someone with your chin up and arms down ain't too smart
@@luisveitia2310 kind of what I meant about gunnin to break that big nose. He does come in open, and swings hard, but very wide, huge gaps. In the UFC, it wont go unnoticed, a nice overhand right to that big shnozz, and that baby is crumbling. And that can't get knock out business will probably end in the UFC. And it may be hard to eat them words, paddy is over excited when he wins an that shows me a lack of confidence, why so shocked if you feel like your gonna win. So want to see how he bounces back from a horrid loss, like a knock out, that shows a true fighters spirit, conor did that with diaz, he did win second fight and came back composed like the first fight never happened. But hey It would be cool to see dude go undefeated till champ, but I feel he is too young and adversity will come and humble him, and its all about he comes back. We'll see.
@@j.v.malley5882 Totally agree - smart comment. I wish him the best but that wasn't a clean enough win, he doesn't look like a champ, he looks like he got lucky. But what do I know
@@adampt4454 yeah ranked contenders in the ufc is a new level, need to see him fight more, he's about to go against the best in the world so IDK, but I like the guys who don't go right to the ground and roll around with another man, sometimes I can't believe I watched whole matches were two guys do that the whole time. Paddy will throw em' and swing for the fences I respect that. Think he's only 26 so dudes got a future. But he's eventually gonna have a bad day has to unless he's another khabib, but khabib always could just get to ground if things got bad. But I hate that he deserves respect but I want to see stand up. They should make a rule where one round is all stand up then next u can go ground or stand.
@@j.v.malley5882 so true. What i fear for him is a growing ego, which was the death of conor. Conor had his feet far more on the ground before he won the second World title, then it was affairs, coke, steroids, whisky, religious bashing etc. As he was no longer thankful he was just greedy. Paddy looks like his ego is taking a massive stroke (as it would at 21) but that's too young to be able to handle the fame and I would predict him doing well for a few fights only before the ego gets the better of him and the money change him into a conor
Can't wait to see his progress within the ufc. Def one to watch for sure
As a fellow scouser from Huyton. Go all the way lad. You have the support. YNWA JF97
He's gonna be big in the UFC
This kid is awesome!! Go on bro , smash them tonight!!!
Hope he lives up to his potential. Looking forward to following his career👍
he gets it, not only is he a great fighter, he gets the promotional part, the bodies in the seats, the views....I see great things in his future, he cocky, but at same time, there a quiet, humbleness to him...Won his Fight in UFC other night, good luck to you kid
I want him to do well in ufc . I’m excited to see more of him
So humble and modest. The greatest let their fighting do the talking. Conan Mac greegor is no role model. Paddy’s future is as gold as he wants. Don’t let ya self down
Who?
@@myleshutton15 how?
Humble and modest?? He seems like a decent guy but he's not humble at all.
Shut up and drink some Proper 12
Good lad heart like a lion keep up the good work 👊🏼
Felicitaciones desde Argentina, exitos Paddy gran campeón.
"I helped me sister get a new kitchen."
Very Scouse thing to say. 😁
Why?
@@boerekable that's just something a Scouse person says. 😁
he looks the same thing when it comes to your head when you hear paddy pimblett
That's such an original comment.
@@vdnavalanche8837 no its not
@@sochax4146 it is
Instant fan from Texas. Let’s go!
Its the haircut that does it for me, love and support from Australia bro.
He’s like Connor where you actually kinda believe what he’s saying
Now we got paddy "the grappling conor" pimblett and khamzat "the striking khabib" chimaev, okay cool
Well, they have the same level of charisma. Connor is a heel and does antics that should tick people off but he has that air around him that makes people root for him. Paddy looks like He-Man and doesn't have the MMA fighter look but he attracts people.
He is the real deal lad he lives a couple of miles away from me an I've followed his career for years he's always been a bjj beast who can submit people with ease it was his stand up game that concerned most people but in the last 2 years he's become a very good striker an he's got a proper solid chin as we seen when he just buzzed of that massive left he got off luigi. He's still young an learning but he is genuinely the complete package including his personality he could be as big as mcgregor in the next couple of years 👍
@0 0f khabib was a bigger rise than conor! He never lost a single fight as an amateur then went through the entire lightweight ufc division losing only 2 rounds on his entire career which is just insane an will never be done again he truly is the goat of combat sports.
@@yemalad1. so........ why don't he like mcgregor?
When he gets his nose broken he'll have a great career as an Owen Wilson impersonator
😆😆😆😆😆😆
You made a funny!!🤡🖕🏻
Bro this guy is the future of ufc can't wait for more of his fights
Without those losses.
You would not be who you are.
Go forth.
Continue.
Win.
From Australia.
Peace.
The Scouse are some of the realist people period YNWA Let's Go!!!
Also the ugliest
I like Paddy Pimblett.. he’s a good fighter and a great personality … I wish him luck !
Paddy pimblett.
I only first got introduced through a good mate less than a month ago and I already know how genuine, determined,tuned in n clued up mentally and finally tuned physically quick hard hitting and pure class you are .now go fuck'em all up .🤘✌️👊👍⭐🐜
Saw him fight first time. Love paddy im deffo a fan now!
I think he's friends w/ masters of the universe.
😂😂😂
Exactly what I was thinking. Glad someone else saw it.
Wish it was a full house for his debut
Me too mate... Where's your head at 🎶🇬🇧
I saw a meme with Stewart from madTV saying look what I can do, with a pic of paddy KOing someone. Lol I can't unsee it.
How can you not like this dude? Love his attitude.
The fact he turned down the ufc to me says he will go far. He believes in himself to be the best
"We don't get knocked out" If he fights like he did in his last fight against anybody who can ACTUALLY fight, he's getting put to sleep in the first round.
You don't know about fighting.. this guy is a savage and he can take a lot of solid punches
I mean the lad he fought was still a UFC competitor lmao.
You talking out of your ass, as if the guy he fought couldn't fight. There's a reason they are in the UFC.
The hair is iconic, never change it.
Looking forward to see what this dude can bring to the table, He feels authentic, very promising, fun personality, good fighter. will be easy to promote. say whatever u want, but i enjoy fun fighters, like Sean omalley, mcgregor and like DJ, they are fun to watch, fun styles.
Love scousers and the accent YNWA Paddy ❤️🙌🏼
Follow your dream, make your own name away from Conor's shadow. Stay as entertaining as you are inside the cage, but be humble outside.
He isn't in Conor's shadow, he's barely said more than 'hello' to him throughout his whole life ... Guys like Artem Lobov and Dillon Danis are in Conor's shadow - not every random up-and-comer who everyone thinks will be 'the next big thing'
@@DD-co1zn I'm not saying he is, I said it because when people see an Irish fighter Conor comes first to mind, fact! that's why I said make his own name and not be compared.
@@cahlex he's not Irish. He's white and he speaks English 'in a funny accent' ... I guess everyone who satisfies that criteria is 'in Conor's shadow' ... Get real mate.
@Tracey Handcharm didn't say he was English you clown. I said he SPOKE English 'in a funny accent'.
And btw, Irish isn't white. Irish is Irish.
The only thing Paddy & Conor have in common is skin colour and speaking English 'in a funny accent'. Try and keep up with what is being said, and by who, before you go directing your nonsense at me.
@@DD-co1zn sorry, just realised that scousers accent. Actually thought he's northern.
Go ed lad supporting you all the way 👏
Paddy you're awesome and keep up the hard work!
He looks terrible in his debut but wins, then he wins his next fight impressively but still is thought of as hype job...only to win his next 3 by stoppages and makes his way to a title fight against Poirier who he defeats by flying triangle!! I'm calling it now
Paddy looks small for a lightweight. That's a very tough division to start off.
Dustin, Gaethje, Oliviera and Chandler all look so much bigger
@@thewolf5444 his standup was pretty average today....kind of worried for paddt
@@kookhui6123 Yeah you did call it. It was a win, but it wasn't as dominating and extravagant as they have been promoting him. He has the fire power moving forward, he has a decent ground game, but he needs to learn about patience, timing and defence. The only thing is that he has that X factor. Dana loves the X factor. Because that makes him money
@@kookhui6123 I don't see him winning the title anytime soon though. Anything known about his coach? He needs a world class coach to take him to the next level I reckon
Porier will pound him into oblivion.
Am I the only one getting nervous watching them sit on the railing w/ a 50' fall?
You're not alone on this one haha
legend
Good luck to you Lad YNWA🤩 your going to be a Big star… inspiring kids to better themselves PERFECT 🤝
