Busted up Paddy Pimblett loses bloody war to Justin Gaethje after being dropped in interim title bout at UFC 324
Justin Gaethje became the new interim lightweight champion by defeating Paddy Pimblett at UFC 324.
Gaethje and Pimblett went to war in the Las Vegas headliner, with the American securing a unamimous decision win after five rounds.
Two judges scored the contest 49-46 in favour of ‘The Hightlight’, while the third ruled it 48-47.
“Scousers do not get knocked out!” Gaethje told Joe Rogan after his win.
“This is a crazy sport.”
Pimblett had been asking for a war his entire career in Dana White’s promotion and certainly got one at UFC 324.
