Rising lightweight star Paddy Pimblett got the attention of the top contender in the division with his recent comments. Pimblett trashed No. 1 ranked Arman Tsarukyan in a recent interview and it drew a response from the Armenian contender.
Pimblett referred to Tsarukyan as ‘a posh boy who has had everything handed to him on a silver platter by his dad,’ Pimblett also questioned whether Tsarukyan was legitimately injured when he pulled out of the UFC 311 title fight in January against champion Islam Makhachev the day before the event.
“No,” Pimblett answered when asked if he thought Tsarukyan was actually injured. “He’s a little b*tch ass. That’s what you are Arman. Little b*tch boy.”
“So, basically Arman, you sh*t your pants. That’s what you did. You farted and followed through and had sh*t coming down your leg,” Pimblett continued.
Pimblett is ranked No. 12 in the lightweight division and faces No. 7 ranked Michael Chandler in the UFC 314 co-main event in Miami this weekend. Tsarukyan responded to Pimblett’s comments and dared “The Baddy” to call him out if he defeats Chandler on Saturday.
“Says the guy who got the easiest path to the top in ufc just because he’s got a funny accent and budget beatles haircut. I dare you to call me out if you win and we will see who will sh*t his pants in the octagon when we meet clown,” Tsarukyan wrote on social media.
