Renato Moicano, a fighter in the UFC's lightweight division, once again had unflattering things to say about Paddy Pimblett, the organization's prospect at that weight.
"Every time someone shows a tough fight, then they are challenged. Paddy knows a fight with me isn't going to happen right now. I don't want to get too hung up on Paddy. When I beat Turner, then we can talk about him already. We'll see if he's going to fight me, time will tell. This guy's an average fighter, in my opinion. He's average, nothing more. Paddy knows how to fight, although he could be better since he's still young. Pimblett is not an elite fighter, not a UFC level fighter. That's why he's not in the top 15. In my opinion, he lost to Jared Gordon. He had a lot of problems with Tony Ferguson, who is 39 years old. It's just crazy.He needs a fight with me for hype and popularity. If they offer me good money or even organize a numbered tournament in London, then we can talk about this fight. I'm only interested in money. If they offer me good money for a fight with Paddy Pimblett, why not a fight?" - MMA Fighting Portal quotes Moicano as saying.
