Recall that on January 24, in the main event of UFC 324, Pimblett has to play for the interim title with Justin Gaethje.
"I want to beat Gaethje, then take the championship belt from Topuria in the summer, and defend the title once by the end of the year. It would be great to fight in Miami again, but a White House tournament does not attract me.
Holloway and Oliveira will fight for the BMF belt, which is cool. This means Tsarukyan is sitting idly. He's stuck in a rut, let him stay there. He said he would like to teach me a lesson, but we saw each other in person, and he did nothing. He's just a dumb Armenian. I'm ready to beat him at the end of the year, crush him. He's like an ugly mushroom who thinks everything should be handed to him", stated Pimblett in an interview with TNT Sports.
