PUBLICITY:

The UFC is set to return to London on March 22, and one of the biggest certainties for the event is the presence of Paddy Pimblett. The British fighter has stepped into the UFC octagon on six occasions, three of which were in England. With 'The Baddy' still without a confirmed opponent for the card, a fan took to social media to suggest a duel against Mateusz gamrot. The Polish man liked the idea.

Gamrot seeks to recover from his defeat to Dan Hooker No. UFC 305, last August, which halted his three-game winning streak against big names such as jalin turner, Raphael Fiziev e Rafael dos Anjos. After recently denying a rumor that put him in a rematch with Fiziev, the Pole made a post on 'X' (formerly Twitter), suggesting that a fight against Pimblett in UFC London 'looks great'.

Sounds great @PaddyTheBaddy ready? https://t.co/rqJoIwAi1H

Currently ranked 13th in the lightweight rankings (up to 70,3 kg), Paddy Pimblett is experiencing the best phase of his career. The British fighter is undefeated in the UFC with six wins, three by submission and one by knockout. His triumphs most recent were about the former interim champion Tony Ferguson and the veteran Bobby Green. A duel against Gamrot would be the biggest step in 'The Baddy's' career, as the Pole is currently ranked 8th in the category.
