Paddy Pimblett gets heated about feud with Ilia Topuria and Terrance McKinney

Despite being a perfect 5-0 since signing with the UFC, Paddy Pimblett has a target on his back by his fellow fighters. Many believe the scouser isn’t good enough to compete inside the octagon and have publicly stated that.

‘The Baddy’ has an incredible 21-3 record in the sport and at just 29 years old, has plenty of time to improve in the areas he needs most. Having won each of his UFC outings thus far, it may not be long before the lightweight is knocking on the door of the top 15.

Alongside a select few fighters that he dislikes, Paddy Pimblett has been honest about his hatred for Mark Zuckerberg. While he has a history of animosity toward the billionaire, Pimblett recently stated he would be happy to train him.

“Everyone is lizard’s, lad. F***ing everyone p*sses me off,” Pimblett said during his interview with Happy Endings. “He [Mark Zuckerberg] was at a UFC [event] wasn’t he not so long ago?”

“I would [train with him], you know what I mean? I called him a lizard, but… I’ve got my Instagram back now, I’m not a**ed. If he ever wants to do some jiu-jitsu, he can get on me.”

While speaking about who he dislikes the most in the sport, Paddy Pimblett recalled his feud with featherweight title contender Ilia Topuria.

“Probably hand sanitizer boy, he’s a sausage. Some little mushroom, lad. He’s a little chorizo. I threw a hand sanitizer bottle at him.”

“He tried to like throw a slap at me, lad, when I was on my own and he was with about 12 of his mates. He tried to throw a slap at me so I stepped back and threw a hand sanitizer bottle at his head. So I just call him hand sanitizer boy now. This was in the fighter hotel when I fought in London in March.”

Pimblett then spoke about another contender he has had problems with in the past.

“Lad, loads of people talk about me though. That little mushroom that goes by the dinosaur name… What’s his name? [It] f***ing goes with the dinosaur name. What’s his name? ‘T.Wrecks’.”

“Whatever his name is anyway, that mushroom doesn’t stop talking about me, lad. You can get his tweets up, lad. You can type a name in on someone’s tweets, lad he’s got about f***ing 700 tweets [about me].”

“Terrance McKinney. His nickname’s ‘T.Wrecks’. Lad, every interview he does, he talks about me. Every f***ing, every tweet… See that Terrance? He doesn’t know who you are. That’s the point, lad. No one knows you, you f***ing bum.”
