MIAMI – Michael Chandler and Paddy Pimblett are champing at the bit to go at UFC 314 , and they showed it at Friday’s ceremonial weigh-ins. Chandler (23-9 MMA, 2-4 UFC) and Pimblett (22-3 MMA, 6-0 UFC) are two of the most energetic figures on the roster and will have five rounds to determine a winner when they meet in Saturday’s lightweight co-main event at Kaseya Center ( ESPN+ pay-per-view, ESPN/Disney+, ESPN+). Coming off back-to-back loses against Dustin Poirier and Charles Oliveira, former Bellator champ Chandler, 38, looks to rebound and get his first victory since May 2022. He’ll have to stop the surge of former Cage Warriors titleholder Pimblett, 30, though, who has yet to be beaten inside the octagon. Michael Chandler and Paddy Pimblett brought high energy to their final #UFC316 faceoff and ended with a fist bump. pic.twitter.com/hIdx2abfCb — MMA Junkie (@MMAJunkie) April 11, 2025 Check out the video above to see the final Chandler vs.
