Paddy Pimblett still has his sights set on UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria . Pimblett (22-3 MMA, 6-0 UFC) and Topuria (16-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) have been beefing for a while, including an altercation in London in March 2022 , as well as a confrontation during the UFC 282 press conference . Both have since found success, but Topuria’s career has reached another level. “El Matador” retained his featherweight title when he became the first man to knock out Max Holloway (26-8 MMA, 22-8 UFC) in Saturday’s UFC 308 main event in Abu Dhabi. Pimblett admits he didn’t think Topuria could take out Holloway in that fashion, but he remains confident that he would beat him if they ever crossed paths. “Heavy, hand sanitizer boy with the win,” Pimblett said on his YouTube channel .
