Paddy Pimblett Confident About Beating Ilia Topuria: “Hand sanitizer boy”

The rising UFC lightweight contender Paddy Pimblett is on a steady rise and is a few significant matches away from fighting someone in the top 5. He has never been on cordial terms with the current UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria. Paddy gives him props for the solid knockout victory and congratulates him. However, he wants everyone to know that victory is his if he ever shares the cage with Ilia Topuria. 

It is worth knowing that both fighters have a history with each other, they were a part of an altercation a few years back. It will be interesting to see if they get an opportunity to settle the heat inside the cage.

Paddy Pimblett on Topuria’s recent win 

In a recent YouTube video, Paddy Pimblett shared his thoughts on Ilia Topuria’s recent win and explained how he will beat him in the future. 

“Hand sanitizer boy with the win,” Pimblett said, as quoted by mmafighting.com. “Heavy. Well done, Ilia. Give you your due, lad, 16-0, ‘Hand Sanitizer Boy.’ Can’t wait for him to come back up to lightweight. Still think I’d beat him. I really do. I still think I’d beat him, whether he’s just beat Max Holloway or not”.
