Topuria promises to “trash” Pimblett when they meet

Ilia Topuria, a top fighter in the UFC featherweight division, spoke extremely negatively about the lightweight prospect Paddy Pimblett. He criticized his fighting level, and also promised to “knock him down” at the meeting.

“I take every fight like a professional. I look at all my opponents as professionals, but with Paddy Pimblett it's personal. If I see him in the supermarket, I'll immediately knock him down... Professional? He's not even ranked. Did you watch his last fight at UFC 296 against Tony Ferguson? It was awkward. His last fight was a disgrace... The level he showed in this fight is embarrassing. He looked like a newcomer,” Topuria said.
