Paddy Pimblett notched another win and stole the show in London this past Saturday at UFC Fight Night 204. Pimblett faced some early adversity and ended up on his back against Kazula Vargas, but he rebounded and still managed to win by first-round submission , much to the delight of British fans at O2 Arena. Pimblett, a former Cage Warriors champion, entered the UFC last year already with comparisons to a young Conor McGregor. And after UFC London, Dana White declared that Pimblett’s performance proved “he’s the real deal.” Do you agree with the UFC boss’ assessment? That’s what we asked our “Spinning Back Clique” panel of Nolan King, Matthew Wells, and Brian “Goze” Garcia, who discussed the topic with host “Gorgeous” George Garcia.
